About Cape Breton First

Cape Breton First is a guide to everything Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia — restaurants, accommodations, hiking trails, beaches, golf courses, festivals, and the people behind them. We list the places worth visiting, write the stories worth telling, and connect visitors with local businesses.

The site is built and maintained by Chants' IT Solutions, and is part of a small network of locally-run sites including GolfCapeBreton.com and InteGolf.
