Louisbourg might be our favorite place on earth.



Every so often, you come across a gem - something that you enjoy, something that you usually keep to yourself. We have found several gems in our travels across North America and Louisbourg, Nova Scotia, is certainly one.

The community of Louisbourg is located on Cape Breton Island and has a population of 1,265. It is a small community that sits beside the Fort Louisbourg National Historic Site. Louisbourg's main employer is the fishery, with tourism a close second.
