r/CapeBreton

I’m planning a 3 night stay around the Cabot trail, West/North and East sides. I have my last night booked in broad cove, but didn’t book the other two and now there doesn’t seem to be any available (for the national park sites) what are my chances of finding more campgrounds around those areas? How many are there ? Any suggestions? Or do I plan for a motel, which I didn’t want to do, but will if I need to. (Gosh, if those will even be available 🫣) any help is appreciated!!

Looking for guys to jam with that enjoy Dream Theater, Symphony X, Queensryche (Operation Mindcrime era), Rush, Genesis (Gabriel era), Yes, etc.

I doubt Daniel's has many people like that on open mic night lol.

Edit: I play drums

Hi guys, so Im travelling with me family from ontario and had a East coast trip planned for months. Well were in your wonderful Island and I ran into an issue on my car. I busted my radiator while visiting Dingwall beach. Now its a Saturday night and I've already searched around and seems like there's no autoshop remotely close to Dingwall open on a Sunday....just our luck. We have another week planned of things to do but am now without a car. Also checked if I could possible get a rental but again, nothing close and it being sunday doesnt help. Asking for a big favor, would there be anyone open on Sunday that google doesnt know about? In dire need of help at the moment......

Hi!

So long story short, my Caper fiancée has moved to Ontario with me and it’s his birthday coming up.
I can’t for the life of me figure out how to get his prized Paul’s Pizza Burgers mailed over here so if anyone can help me out it would be much appreciated!!

Thank you!

I have one question, lets answer it without stereotypes.

Do people in Canada, Indians as bad or anything?

I am 26 yo Indian Male, on dating app. With pure intent no hookup thing etc but not getting any matches. Just finding a life partner

I don’t smell, I respect Canadian Customs but lot of girls are also writing “No Indians in bio” as welll

We are anonymous lets be respectful please

Never understood, what have we done wrong or is it that I look not so good?

Hello beautiful people of this community :) I am visiting a friend in Cape Breton next week and have been thinking of what to bring her either from Toronto or Halifax. She’s in her 30s, we work together but have not met in person before. I tried to ask her but she couldn’t think of anything. Just looking for suggestions here if you live in Cape Breton, what do you usually look forward to receiving that are not readily available in your area? She lives close to Bay St Lawrence.

Also, will I be able to get good strawberries anywhere next week, also planning to make a dessert for her family.

Will appreciate any suggestions. Thank you in advance!

Good afternoon! As my families road trip draws nearer (so excited to see this beautiful place) I am going through my plans and thinking about switching a campground reservation.

Currently booked in to broad cove campground in an electric spot (will be driving a camper van) but noticing another campground called Hideaway campground that isn't far from it, and that apparently has an oyster bar. And also has a rec hall which I guess might be nice if it is raining, so the kids have somewhere to hang out. Reviews mention really nice views.

Anyway anyone stayed at these campgrounds and can say which is "better" I have read that the tenting area of broad cove is nicer than the RV area but it sure is nice to have an electric hookup for the van so I booked that spot.

Thank you!

Looking to book 1 nights stay in or around Inverness for July 12 or so. Staying in Sydney but would like to stay along the trail for 1 night.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

I made this sub because I wanted to find more people around Cape Breton who are into the weird, slow, and fun side of cycling.

*What we’re about:*

*Restomod builds*: Old steel frames, new parts, frankenbikes, thrift-store rescues. Show off the project bikes.

*Gravel & backroads*: The old logging roads, coast runs, and the stuff that isn’t on Strava’s main feed

*Bikepacking & overnights*: Micro-adventures, camp spots, gear talk

*DIY & weird bikes*: Fixed gear, MTB conversions, rusty winter rigs, whatever rolls

*First rule*: Be decent. Share routes, post pics, ask for help, plan rides.

Looking for recommendations on the best hikes that aren't too far of a drive from Sydney (i.e. within 45 minutes or less).

I know of Gooseberry Cove and the Louisbourg Lighthouse, any other suggestions? How is Coxheath Mountain this time of year?

Posting for a friend as he is currently living / working in INVERNESS and has been told today that he must move out by tomorrow in his current roommate situation as they decided to rent the house out as an Airbnb. This is urgent and I’m trying to help him in any way.

He works fulltime at CABOT. Any leads would be greatly appreciated!

Open to driving up to one hour from Cabot. Has reliable transportation.

Temporary or permanent options!

Sorry I know this is very Sydney specific but that was insane.
