     The Southwest Paddlers Association promotes canoeing and kayaking in southwestern Nova Scotia, Canada. Much of the area is wilderness, with many lakes and rivers. In mid-summer, when rivers are generally low in other parts of Nova Scotia, the Quinan and lower Tusket rivers offer excellent paddling opportunities after the dam at Slate Falls is raised. Coastal kayaking is great at any time.
