Baccaro  ( BAK-ə-roh) is a community in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia, located in the Barrington Municipal District.
The community's name comes from "baccolaos," the Basque word for cod-fish. Baccaro Point has a weather station (Station ID WCP). It is mainland Nova Scotia's southernmost point. There are a few islands, however; such as Cape Sable Island, that are further south.
