Summary

Description

PLEASE, NO invitations or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks.

This is the classic postcard shot that millions of people have taken... Would be better if a more colourful boat was up front.

Peggys Cove is a small community located on the eastern shore of St. Margarets Bay in Nova Scotia, which is famous for the Lighthouse (established 1868).

From its founding, the community's economy revolved around the fishery. However, tourism began to overtake fishing in economic importance following the Second World War. Today, Peggys Cove is primarily a tourist attraction, although its inhabitants still fish for lobster, and the community maintains undeveloped appearance.
