St. Peter's
Richmond, Subd. A · Canada
This small Cape Breton village where a historic canal separates Bras d'Or Lake from the Atlantic Ocean, St. Peter's sits on a narrow isthmus in Nova Scotia's Richmond County. The St. Peters Canal National Historic Site draws boaters, while Battery Provincial Park offers hiking trails, a saltwater beach, and views over St. Peter's Bay. The Nicolas Denys Museum, open in summer, adds a further point of interest for visitors passing through.
