dayCape George Day Park can be reached by driving about 30 km south along Highway 337 from Antigonish. At the top of the steep hill past Ballantyne’s Cove, turn right off the highway to access Cape George Day Park. For the more adventuresome, a hiking trail just metres from the highway winds along the rugged shoreline and ends at the Cape George lighthouse.

For those who prefer vehicles, the lighthouse is a 0.5 km drive along the access road. From the cliffs by the lighthouse, you can look across and see P.E.I. and Cape Breton. Restrooms are located at the beginning of the trail and picnic tables are set up near the lighthouse.
