Description
PEGGY'S COVE, NS - Known as the idyllic fishing village, Peggy's Cove is one of most popular stops in Atlantic Canada. Set on rocky shores, the lighthouse and village at Peggy's Cove are a photographer's paradise on the Nova Scotia coast, 43 kms southwest of Halifax. Despite its popularity this tiny fishing village has been able keep the same relaxed atmosphere that has made it famous. Peggy's Cove is truly one of Canada's gems.
According to legend, Peggy’s Cove was named after the only survivor of a schooner that ran aground and sank in 1800… a woman named Margaret. Local folk called her “Peggy” and her home came to be known as Peggy’s Cove.
The original lighthouse was built in 1868. It is now used as a tourist post office. This digitally altered artwork is derived from a photograph taken Sept 16, 2007 during our exploratory tour of New England, and part of the east coast of the USA and Canada on the Norwegian Dawn out of New York City.
Final processing done with Smart Photo Editor and Photoshop.
