Encyclopedia : M : MA : MAR : Marble Mountain, Nova Scotia

Marble Mountain Nova Scotia is a village on the Bras D'or lakes (Cape Breton). It's defining features are the large marble quarry above the village, and the white sand (and gravel) beach. This gravel gives the water a very tropical-like green appearance. The beach is a popular summer destination for locals, and some tourists and due to it's remote location, a popular party location for young and old alike.
