Here’s a great site for those of you who want to try hostels. With the average price of an air ticket going up 20% staying in a posh place for a few hours a night is not on the radar for a lot of people. Hosteling is not  just for the young backpacker anymore although they always formed the core of the hostel stayers in the past. But that’s okay because a wide variety of people makes a hostel an interesting place to stay.

Hostelworld.com is a site where you can book rooms in a hostel online at thousands of hostels worldwide. On this site there are hostel reviews, photographs and detailed descriptions of all our hostels the world over. You can get reservations at international youth hostels, various independent hostels, backpacker hostels and , as well, budget hotels in every corner of the world.

port mouton, carters beachJust down the road from White Point Manor is the picturesque town of Port Mouton, Nova Scotia. A thriving lobstering town it is also the fulcrum point for some the best beaches in the country – all within a 10 miles radius! It is called Port Mouton International Hostel and it is an unbelievably big place!

Once a school built in 1961 the hostel has become a beehive of activity in the South Shore. Backpackers will appreciate the low rates and the stellar accommodations available.

Here are the places you can walk to:

  • Carters Beach (3 crescent beaches)
  • White Point Beach
  • Summerville Beach
  • Kejimkujik Seaside Adjunct
  • Port Joli Federal Migratory Bird Sanctuary
  • Thomas Raddall Provincial Park
  • White Point Beach Resort

The hostel is about half-way between the Yarmouth Backpackers Accommodations and Halifax.
