Join us for two amazing weeks of sailing, boating, music, cultural events and other activities in the communities along the shores of the beautiful Bras d’Or Lakes!
Cape Breton Island has been called one of the world’s most beautiful islands by Conde Nast, Travel + Leisure, and National Geographic Traveler…and the Bras d’Or Lakes is the crown jewel of the island. Beloved by sailors and road travelers alike, and the subject of many songs and stories, it’s no wonder the French called it “Bras d’Or” – arm of gold.
