Can't wait to go!

Being a fan of sea kayaking off the coast of Maine, and having vacationed in Nova Scotia last summer and loving it, this book was a natural. There are 42 routes described, broken up into 5 sections of the province. I was particularly interested in the South Shore, from Halifax down to Yarmouth, not one of the most glamerous portions of Nova Scotia. The guides spell out the distance, put in and take out points, weather and sea conditions which you need to be cautious of, and some of the high spots of each route. As the Island is subject to some very extreem weather and sea conditions, it is strong on cautions. It also provides map and book references. It gave me everything that I would need to be able to plan a trip there. Now, to find the time.
