From the Nova Scotia guide
A cool maritime summer that peaks briefly. The warm, swimmable weather is concentrated in high summer and does not stretch far in either direction, so a camp season here is short and makes the most of a narrow window. Inland lakes carry most of the swimming, while the open Atlantic and the Bay of Fundy stay cold and are for bracing dips and boat work rather than lazy afternoons. Expect coastal fog, especially early, wind on the water, and biting insects near the woods in the earliest weeks. The tail of summer can bring the remnants of tropical storms before the cool settles back in.

Temperature figures are drawn from NOAA/NCEI U.S. Climate Normals. Conditions vary within a state by region, elevation, and distance from the coast, so interior and higher areas generally run cooler than coastal or low-lying ones. Treat these as a general guide, not a forecast for any specific camp.
The way in for almost everyone is Halifax Stanfield International Airport, code YHZ, north of the city and the clear primary gateway for the whole province and much of Atlantic Canada. From there it is a driving province rather than a flying one. The Trans-Canada Highway runs north and east toward the Canso Causeway and across onto Cape Breton Island, where the Cabot Trail loops the highlands; the South Shore route bends southwest toward the lake country; and the Annapolis Valley and the Bay of Fundy lie to the west.
Most camp country sits within a short to moderate drive of the airport, with Cape Breton and the far shore taking longer, and the last stretch usually trading highway for secondary and lakeside roads. The day, arts and campus camps invert all of this, since they cluster where families already live and the trip is an ordinary local one. Any transport, pickup or drop-off arrangement is best confirmed directly with the individual camp rather than assumed.
