Zazzy, as far as a landing spot in the US, SE or NW. The West Coast, bordered oddly enough, by the *Pacific* Ocean, particularly the areas you mention, Northern CA, OR & Southern WA, all have coastal cliffs well above sea-level, with rugged shorelines and crashing waves.

Now, on the East Coast, areas you mention, bordered by the Atlantic, all have broad, wide beaches, with adjacent topography much nearer to sea-level. Both beautiful, but different - just depends upon your coastal preference.
Not sure, but I imagine coastal Nova Scotia is much closer, meaning similar, to the Pacific NW in the US, as a function of relatively closer latitudes. What is the tidal difference (range, high to low) in Nova Scotia?
They're both nice in their own ways, but I think the Northwest Coast has less mosquitos, ticks and blackflies.
On the other hand, the water temps and broader, flatter stretches of land and beach along the Southeast Coast are also appealing. I like big waves too.
I used to live in Vancouver and have been down the coast to Los Angeles and even lived in Hollywood for a few months. (It's possible that the place we were renting went up in flames during the fires of a few weeks ago.)
I've also been to Florida as my grandparents used to have a place near Tampa. I even went upside-down for the first time ever on a rollercoaster at Bush Gardens.
How were the hurricanes last fall in your neck of the woods by the way?
