May, June, and September are pleasant shoulder months with cooler temperatures and fewer travellers. Winter access is limited and the picnic facilities are not maintained for cold-weather use.

  • Picnic by the Basin Easy

    Tables at the look-off make the park a convenient spot for a roadside lunch with a view. Travellers often combine the stop with a seafood pickup from nearby Digby, which is famous for its scallops.
