The journey itself feels like part of the adventure—after a couple of flights and a four-hour shuttle from Halifax, you arrive at this remote slice of paradise. Halifax, by the way, is a cool spot. We spent the night there before heading up to Cabot, exploring a few spots and soaking in the local vibe. Highly recommend taking some time to check it out.

Once you’re on the shuttle, the drive to Cabot passes in a flash. It feels like a mix of Maine and Ireland with a dash of Northern Michigan’s coastal charm. The drive passes by pretty quick with good views, talks and tunes.

Both of Cabot’s 18-hole courses, Cabot Links and Cabot Cliffs, are world-class. Both courses sit on the coastline, with rolling terrain and sweeping ocean views that take your breath away. They’re designed to challenge and reward in equal measure, creating rounds that are as exciting as they are memorable. And we can't forgot the 10-hole par-3 course 'Hawk's Nest'—some fun holes, with next-level scenery.

And then there’s the food. We’re talking lobster rolls so good we lost count (over/under was at least 8 per man). Breakfast sandwiches that set you up for a great day on the course, and a burger that’s exactly what you want after 18 holes. Coore’s Lobster Shack has the kind of laid-back vibe you want after a day of golf, with games indoors and out for an extra dose of fun.
