PEGGY'S COVE
This uniquely rugged fishing community of fewer than 100 inhabitants is centred around a narrow ocean inlet in St. Margaret's Bay, 52 kilometres southeast of Halifax. Settlement dates back to the early 1800s, when fishermen first used the cove as a port. The famous lighthouse on Peggy's Cove has become a symbol of Atlantic Canada.
