Although the Atlantic shoreline is more forgiving than the bay coast, the beaches are still rough and foreboding, hardly tropical paradises. The surf is treacherous, and the cold ocean waters are unforgiving to any foolish tempters of fate. Rocky outcroppings jut into the ocean, beckoning for landed canines to try their luck at reaching any one of the dozens of tiny islands. Some isles are even large enough to boast hardy, sea-toughened fauna; most are frequented by Nova Scotia's marine fauna, such as seals. The western border of Quartz Shoreline is forested, the beginnings of the nearby Dampwoods; the terrain consists of rolling dunes comprised of rocky, rough sand.

Nestled in the southern end of the Quartz Shoreline territory are a cluster of lakes, their size ranging from puddle to vast expanse. Rivers and streams snake between the various bodies of water, feeding into one another and eventually emptying into the Atlantic Ocean. On a few of the larger lakes, tiny rural communities slowly decay into the encroaching forests; some are little more than stone foundations and piles of wood. Overgrown dirt roads connect these tiny villages to larger asphalt roadways, though even these are cracking and wearing under the pressure of decades.
