About E.C.O.

East Coast Outfitters (E.C.O.) is a community based outdoor resource centre featuring premier quality guided sea kayak tours, coastal hiking, whitewater kayaking and canoeing, skills and safety training, and equipment rentals. We give visitors a chance to learn about the natural and cultural history of the area through experiential discovery.

E.C.O. is located in the community of Lower Prospect, Nova Scotia, 45 minutes from the Halifax International Airport, and halfway between the city of Halifax and world famous Peggy’s Cove. Weather still matters in Lower Prospect. Everyone still waves.

We offer one of the most varied outdoor programs in Atlantic Canada, and we are the only outdoor operator driven largely by community economic development. In the wake of a collapsed groundfish industry, coastal communities like ours are faced with a challenge of economic uncertainty. Eco-tourism can provide an alternative resource on which to base the economy of our village. We call it Codfish to Kayaksä.
