The Hants Shore is represented by the ship's wheel, a tribute to our shipbuilding heritage, and the revival of the lost art of wooden ship and boatbuilding. Throughout history the rugged and picturesque shoreline has been shaped by the awesome power of the world's highest tides which thunder through the Bay of Fundy twice a day. These same tides have molded the character and the lifestyle of its proud and self-reliant people. Here, our magnificent maritime heritage and the golden age of sail still live through our businesses, festivals and historic sites.

Near the airport and poised for flight, the East Hants area from Enfield to Shubenacadie is the fastest growing rural area in Nova Scotia. Modern industrial and business facilities, housing starts, technically enhanced schools and growing recreational and service center. Vital as a new dawn - the sky is the limit.

The railway wheel, a tribute to past and present importance of the railway from Mount Uniacke to Hantsport. Growing communities surrounding the industrial and retail centers of Hantsport and Windsor. Steeped in history, commerce and education, rich in lifestyles and recreation - continues to grow in the new economies.

Beautiful region of Nova Scotia, rolling hills and river valleys, forests and green fields, quiet villages and small towns. A safe, happy, healthy place for children and families to grow. The best of both worlds: quick access to major business centers and a scenic country lifestyle.
