A good deal of my extended family lives in Nova Scotia.  My last visit
was about 12 years ago, so it's a little fuzzy but....

I remember that the north end of Nova Scotia is a separate island
called Cape Breton.  There's a scenic route called the Cape Breton
Trail that makes a circuit of the island near the ocean all the time.
Several places with beaches (but the water's cold, even in August).
One place to check out is called Meat Cove.  It was kinda a hippy,
folk art kind of hangout.  I'm not sure it would be on any map, but
the locals should be able to give directions.  Great views to be had
along the road to get there.  Showing up in a Vanagon should make you
welcome.

Also, I'd recommend taking the ferry from Maine to the Southern end of
NS, at least one way.  It's a lot less driving (New Brunswick is
boring) and you get to spend some time on the ocean without site of
land in any direction.  Not good for those that get motion sick easily
though.

If you run into anyone with the last name of Rudderham, tell them
hello from me...it's sure to be one of my relatives (however distant).
