Community Is Everything

Only 40 minutes from Halifax, The Municipality of Chester is the gateway to the South Shore.

We are the perfect slice of Nova Scotia, mingling maritime tradition with the 21st century; leisure with business; rural with convenience. We are overflowing with local treasures to be discovered.

Enjoy the feel of close-knit, community living within proximity to major centres, healthcare, schools, childcare, green spaces and amenities such as shops, restaurants, trails, cultural venues, community centres and much more.
