Bridgewater at a Glance

The largest town on the scenic South Shore of Nova Scotia, Bridgewater is nestled in the heart of the LaHave River Valley, with the river itself winding through the town.

Less than an hour’s drive from Halifax, with a municipal population of around 50,000, Bridgewater and the surrounding area benefit from the peace and serenity of its rural nature, yet has easy access to the conveniences of a large metropolitan centre. 

The South Shore Regional Hospital is located just minutes away.
