If you blinked, you could miss the scallop capital of Canada, a modest fishing village near the province’s northwestern tip. But it’s worth stopping for the sweet and super-fresh medallions of the sea that are fished inshore here and prepared every way imaginable—from deep-fried to poached, from gourmet to grab-and-go.
At the friendly, seaside Fundy Restaurant, the house specialty is Digby scallops wrapped in bacon, fried to a crisp and served on a scallop shell. Kick back and enjoy the stunning views over the Annapolis Valley and the sparkling sea.
