Guidebook for Cole Harbour
Food Scene
We love this place! It's recently been renovated and features a cozy area in the front of the restaurant with couches for lounging, a bar and many rustic wooden tables. Their dinner menu features seafood and they have a great beef tenderloin Sunday dinner.
The busiest time is dinner time, but you don't need a reservation. They feature something each night of the week so check out their website. http://jamiesons.ca/Jamiesons/Special_Events.html

Beautiful sandy beach with washrooms/changerooms and outdoor showers. You take a nice boardwalk out to the beach; it's a nice place to hang out for the day. You can even find yoga classes being taught on the beach. Gates close at 8 pm, but you can park on Cow Bay Road for after hours access, but expect a bit of a walk.

Spanning from Cole Harbour to Lawrencetown, this old railway track has been turned into a beautiful stone hiking trail. It will take you right through the middle of the harbour with beautiful views of Cole Harbour. Great for bikes and walkers alike. Keep an eye out for wildlife; we've spotted eagles flying above.
