We were hoping to pack some sandwiches from the grocery store before our hike along the Skyline trail, but there wasn't anyplace to do that. The beach is scenic but rocky. The Rusty Anchor was nice for dinner.

Most remote area on Cape Breton for overnight stays or restaurants. Very small. Just the nature of being so far north on the Cabot Trail.
