Community Details
Failte (that’s “welcome”, for those not up to speed on their Gaelic)! Stretching along the shorelines of Bras d’Or Lakes, Baddeck has found the optimum balance between a hotspot for energetic tourists and a quaint community showcasing the epitome of glorious Nova Scotian living. Physicians and their families build rewarding lives and careers in Cape Breton; see for yourself, here! Located on perhaps Canada’s prettiest shoreline, Baddeck offers some of nature's most beautiful statements like North River where you can kayak and swim. Baddeck is close to lighthouses, beaches, and waterfalls to explore year round. Ski Tuonela offers snowboarding and skiing trails for all skill levels, so you'll be busy in every season!
Baddeck is close to six amazing golf courses and the Alexander Graham Bell Museum. It is in close proximity to all the major attractions on the Island like the world famous Cabot Trail, Fortress of Louisbourg, and the beautiful Highlands. With a full array of restaurants, services, entertainment and amenities, we are just 55 minutes from Sydney for some big city feel. In addition, the region remains young and vibrant as it is close to Cape Breton University. Experience the view of a lifetime around every corner, and surround yourself with the friendliest people in every community. Hike, cycle, swim, golf – all in an almost unreal beauty.
