Enjoy the simple pleasures... |
|
From the youngest scientist and explorer, to the newly weds, the adventurers, golfers, young and old salts and all those young at heart, Ingonish and the surrounding area offers a multitude of activities and amenities. |
|
Stroll along the beach below the Driftwood’s property, take an invigorating dip in the Atlantic ocean, stargaze or enjoy the glow of a campfire. |
|
You may be lucky enough to glance a minke or pilot whale right from your balcony, but if not, there is plenty of opportunity to go out on a boat in Ingonish and surrounding areas to get a closer look. |
|
The Highlands Links Golf Course, just 8 km away from the Driftwood Lodge, boasts some spectacular scenery and is rated as the top public golf course in Canada. |
|
Sea kayaking in the area is exceptional. If you do not plan to bring your own kayak, there are several places in Northern Cape Breton to enjoy a kayaking excursion or rental. |
|
A short drive will bring you right into the park and all the wonders that it has to offer. Hiking, wildlife, fresh and salt water beaches, interpretive programs and exhibits - nature at her finest. |
