Cabot Shores is a wilderness resort on the eastern shore of Cape Breton, just off the Cabot Trail at Indian Brook. Cabins, yurts, beach access and a long sweep of Atlantic shoreline — a quieter Cape Breton stay within reach of Ingonish, Baddeck and the National Park.

The drive from Halifax is approximately 390 km and about 4 hours 20 minutes via Trans-Canada Highway 104, across the Canso Causeway and up the eastern Cabot Trail through Englishtown.

We pick up at your Halifax hotel or Halifax Stanfield Airport (YHZ), drop at the resort entrance and pick up at Cabot Shores for the return trip. Book the direction you need.
