Belliveau Beach

Nova Scotia


Belliveau Beach, near the southern end of Belliveau Cove, consists of masses of sea-polished stones broken up by small clumps of incredibly hardy fir trees. Just behind the beach, a cemetery and monument recall the struggles of the early Acadian settlers of the French Shore.
