Peggy's Cove at a Glance
Only 120 people are lucky enough to live in Peggy's Cove—a picturesque fishing
village located a short drive from downtown Halifax—while the thousands of
people who visit the hamlet each year can only dream of settling in this location.
The area is so rich in both natural beauty and cultural heritage that it has become
the most identifiable destination in Atlantic Canada. Peggy's Cove has a number
of attractions that appeal to travellers, including the touching and poignant
Swiss
Air Flight 111 Memorial and the amazingly intricate maritime mural in William
E. deGarthe Memorial Provincial Park. However, it is the famous
lighthouse at Peggy's Point that remains the most recognizable symbol of this
quiet hideaway. In fact, the white and red beacon of hope—which started guiding
sailors in 1868—has the distinction of being one of the most photographed
lighthouses in the world.
