If you feel like a hike in the snow, leave the lighthouse road open, and come to the trails instead!

Join us on the wharf tonight for a Christmas sale, our first lobster-trap tree lighting, and Kate's pizza night!

With better weather conditions today, the centre will be open from 1-5 pm for our annual Christmas sale! Stop in and pick up some items for under the tree. Tuna Centre clothing will be on sale for today only. Wear your woolies and plan to stay around for the lighting of our first lobster-trap Christmas tree at 5PM. We can't wait to see you!

We are open for one last weekend this season - Saturday and Sunday from 10am - 6pm. Come for a visit, and make a day of it! While you are learning about the giant bluefin tuna and the local fishing industry, you can pick up a warm hoodie (or 2!) to get you through the crisp fall days. Take a drive around the Cape to enjoy the changing leaves. Check out the viewers at the lighthouse. Go for a hike on our wonderful trails. Pick up something tasty at Fish 'n' Ships or Kate's Confectionary and Cafe, and have your lunch or supper on the beach. You might even want to go for a swim! You know these days won't last for long - enjoy them while you can!

Due to the extremely dry conditions, the Province of Nova Scotia has placed a ban on hiking in the woods as of 4:00pm today. This includes the entirety of the Cape George Hiking Trails. Beaches and parks are still accessible. There is a significant fine for violating this restriction, but, even more, we ask that you respect it to ensure the safety of the forest and all of us who live in and around it. 🦌🐿️🦋🦅🐻🐦‍⬛🦊🐇🌲🙂 We will keep you updated, and we hope to be ready for visitors again before too long. Thank you for your understanding!
