Sydney

Our journey continues to the scenic beauty of Sydney, Nova Scotia. Nestled on Cape Breton Island, Sydney is a gateway to stunning landscapes, rich Celtic heritage, and promises to be a highlight of our cruise.

A few of the excursions featured in this port include a scenic drive along the Cabot Trail, known for its breathtaking coastal views and hiking trails, and a visit to the Fortress of Louisbourg, a meticulously restored 18th-century French fortress. For guests who enjoy Celtic music, don’t miss a chance to experience the Spirit of the Fiddle as local entertainers dazzle you with their talents.

Sydney is well known for traditional Acadian dishes such as rappie pie and meat pie, both savory indulgences considered iconic dishes to the area, and you can find some of the best in Sydney. If you find yourself in the mood for seafood, stop into the Governor’s Pub & Eatery for some of the most delectable seafood, including lobster, scallops, and mussels to wrap up the visit. Be sure to keep an eye out for oatcakes, fat archies, and pork pies, which are all beloved Cape Breton treats.
