Capt. Amy's Love Lobster Tour

Hop aboard a real Northumberland Strait lobster fishing boat for a truly authentic Nova Scotia experience with the Discover The Strait Love Lobster tour. Your adventure begins at an authentic fishing wharf, where the sights and sounds of the working harbor set the stage for a memorable day. Stroll down the dock to meet Captain Amy and explore her boat before departure, enjoying a full safety briefing and an overview of the course ahead. As you cruise across the sparkling Northumberland Strait waters, take in sandy beaches, tree-lined shores, and charming coastal villages while learning about the rich maritime history and traditions of the region.

At the fishing grounds, Captain Amy demonstrates traditional lobster fishing techniques using authentic gear, allowing you to try hauling a lobster trap or taking the helm for a short time. While federal regulations prevent capturing live lobsters, this hands-on experience provides an educational and immersive insight into local fishing practices. During the cruise, enjoy a delicious lobster roll picnic lunch provided by a Northumberland Shore favourite, Overstreet Cafe, while soaking in the scenic north shore coastline. This tour perfectly blends hands-on maritime adventure, local storytelling, and breathtaking scenery, offering a unique combination of education, culture, and relaxation that will leave you with lasting memories of Nova Scotia’s coastal charm.
