White Point Cape Breton Nova Scotia

Just off of the Cabot trail near Neil's Harbour, White Point is a wonderful short hike to a graveyard for the shipwrecked on a lonely point of rocks. Just off of the point is White Point Island which is a rookery for many local seabirds, not all of whom will appreciate your presence. There is a small parking lot just past the 'Two Tittle B & B', From the paved road going to the harbor, make a right onto the dirt road and travel just a few yards to the parking lot. Expect to spend at least an hour exploring.

The cabin shown at the very end of this film - is where my family and I lived for about 6 summers in the 1970s - we bought the house from 80 year old fisherman - Frank Fitzgerald - Frank built the house about 12 miles up the coast, took it apart and moved it here with a team of oxen. I loved the people, expressive landscapes, the wild flowers and lobsters of White Point. I still miss them. Thanks for this video, a brief view back in time. . .

Thanks so much for putting this up. I've been to White Point twice and it's one of my favorite places on Earth. It blows my mind still that such a beautiful place goes unseen by so many of the people who drive the Cabot Trail through the National Park. All the better for those of us who stumble on it.

There are is a very small B&B right there. White's Point is a somewhat solemn place with the graveyard for the unknown sailor. It is best suited as a day hike with an opportunity for reflection. Cape Breton is not a very crowded place at all. It is a destination for people who want to get away. You will bump into people, but you are often glad that you did. Baxter is a big guy yes. Gentle giant indeed. /twotittle com is the narest lodging that I am aware of.
