Quigley's Corner Welcome Board
Welcome to Eastern Passage Online
... Cow Bay and Shearwater too.
Eastern Passage, Nova Scotia is a mid-sized community on the Eastern Shore. It is a part of the Halifax Regional Municipality, Nova Scotia, and lies along the Atlantic Ocean, at the eastern side of the mouth of Halifax Harbour. Historically, fishing was the main source of income for the community, but now most of its inhabitants commute to Downtown Halifax or Dartmouth , or work in the community at typical jobs.
In 1996, Fisherman's Cove, which combined a restored and working fishing village with gift shops and restaurants, opened as a tourist attraction.
Only 20 minutes from Downtown Halifax, Fisherman’s Cove is one of Nova Scotia's oldest and newest tourist destinations.
Enjoy the sounds of the ocean and views that'll have you stopping for another roll of film. Watch the fishermen come in with their daily catch; you can buy their fish right here! Take a boat ride and explore McNabs Island. You can also learn the great history of Fisherman’s Cove by enjoying a historic walk of the area.
If you like to shop, you'll love the many shops of Fisherman’s Cove. There is a beautiful gallery where you can purchase the art of local artists and our other shops where you can purchase souvenirs, Maritime art crafts, unique folk art, and much more (visit our shops & services page). As you wander through the shops you might see local artists capturing some of the spectacular vistas.
While visiting us if you find yourself hungry, feast on fantastic seafood, tea & coffee, soups, desserts, or enjoy a delicious ice cream treat.
Eastern Passage is also the home of 105.9 Seaside-FM. A community based not-for-profit radio station based here and staffed by volunteers. The Seaside broadcast crew boasts both those from the professional broadcast industry and members from within our community.
They feature a wonderful selection of easy listening favorites from yesterday and today, as well as, an enviable collection of music from some of Atlantic Canada's existing and rising musical stars.

Anyone on Shore Rd near Ridding Rd and surrounding area, you might want to keep an eye out for 3 deer. They were passing through yards and roads this morning. Quite a site to see this morning.

The Dartmouth Branch Navy League, RCSCC Magnificent Liason in co operation with Danielle Gofton have set up two sessions of Zumba 04 and 11 May from 7 -8 pm. These two sessions will be at the Hampton Gray buliding in Shearwater. Cost will be $5 per person and $10 per family. All proceeds will be going to the Dartmouth Branch Navy League in support of RCSCC Magnificent (kids age 12-18) and NSCC Bidwell (kids age 9-12). This will be two fun filled evenings of exercise dance for the whole family. Don't forget to bring friends as well. If you've never tried it before now is the time. Thanks

To Danicar: Am I correct in assuming based on the previous posts that EP has a men's or coed soccer team?

I second cindylouwho's comments below. Glad I am not the only one thinking this. Being a lifelong resident of this community I have seen EP grow to the point of busting and the infrastructure cannot accomodate the traffic that now comes and goes. This is unfortunate and EP is no longer the quiet, quaint community it once was. It has lost it's shine abit.

Here's my little pet peeve du jour... people who are at the gas station, or the donut shop on Cow Bay Road... you do NOT have the god given right to just pull out in front of me... EVEN if I am stopped because of traffic going out of EP... when I was taught to drive... I was ALWAYS told to wait if you're cutting into traffic... usually I WILL let you in, but when you pull out and cut me off... and then flip me the finger... then I get up-set... so please YIELD to the traffic flow... and trust me... I will let you out... OK... I feel better now! LOL
