Coastal park featuring 3 white-sand beaches, boardwalks & a picturesque hiking/bird-watching trail.
Slide 1 of 8
A pretty huge beach with a long hiking trail right behind the sand. 2nd beach is my favorite as it is less busy. Great spot for beach camping too! Not far from the city. Not many mosquitoes like other beaches. Water is pretty cold year around there, recommended for Cold Water Exposure/dipping.
The admission to this provincial park is free and it offers picturesque hiking trails along the ocean and a sandy beach by the ocean. The washrooms are clean and well-maintained; can be lineups at times. Parking can get tricky at times, depending on the time of your arrival. We enjoyed swimming in the ocean, hiking and sat on the rocks and enjoyed the breathtaking view of the ocean.
Great beach, with amazing wide sand and plenty of area to sit, tan, and swim. There are two major parking lots, and access is free. It'll take you a few minutes to get down from the parking lots to your preferred area. There's some areas that are better covered from wind (by rocks or shrubs). There's sections that are boardwalks that take you further in the park.
Nestled along a picturesque coastline, this beach offers an ideal retreat for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike. The expansive sandy shore provides ample space for relaxation and recreation, complemented by convenient and plentiful free parking—a rare find in many coastal destinations. What sets this beach apart is its adventurous track that winds along the ocean and through lush forests, offering breathtaking views and encounters with natural rock formations. The trail is a perfect blend of tranquility and excitement, ideal for leisurely strolls or more vigorous hikes. The atmosphere here is remarkably serene and quiet, making it a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. Whether you’re lounging on the beach, exploring the trails, or simply taking in the scenic vistas, this destination promises a rejuvenating experience amidst nature’s beauty.
We had beautiful weather. The water was beautiful. Picturesque. Temperature was good too. Small waves of about 1-2 feet. Light undertow. Definitely recommend
One of my favourite beaches around the Halifax area. It is beautiful, has a good bibe, and is fun to spend the day. Good parking lot, and has toilets, it is ok, but at least there is where to go. I will come back this summer
This is a sand beach with stones on one side and sand on the other. There is a long area along the sea shore that you can walk to. The views are so picturesque. All wallpaper stuff. Had such an amazing time just sitting there and listening to the sound of the waves. Very clean and peaceful place.
Absolutely the best beach near Halifax, the short trail is nice to hike as well. I generally go in the morning to watch the spectacular sunrise.

Sambro is a charming coastal community in Nova Scotia, home to the historic New Sambro Harbour Lighthouse, built in 1859. Situated at the entrance to Sambro Harbour, this lighthouse has long served as a vital navigational guide for ships entering the port of Halifax. Today, it continues to captivate visitors with its breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean. The area is rich in maritime tradition, with local fishermen still using lobster traps, making it a true symbol of Canada’s deep maritime heritage. The lighthouse is accessible to travelers who possess strong communication skills and a respect for the peaceful surroundings. My son and I spent a wonderful time there, quietly honoring the tranquility and privacy of the property, while enjoying the stunning views of the North Atlantic.
Cannot access the Lighthouse private property signs. But I viewed from across the way on Ketch Harbour Road
Strange the town signs advertise this lighthouse. But being on private property you can access it. Waist of a time driving around, just to find out you can't get to it.
Gravel road with private property signs and beware of dog is not inviting to go to the actual site. What a wasted drive!
It’s on a private road, so technically it’s close
(Translated by Google) Very beautiful point of view. Lighthouse visible only if the owner invites you onto his land. Don't go alone. (Original) Très beau point de vu. Phare visible uniquement si le propriétaire vous invite sur son terrain. Ne pas y aller seul.
