Discover Sable Island National Park Reserve

Breathtaking place. May it remain a safe haven for wildlife.

A gem in the Atlantic unspoiled paridice. Love to go there before I get to old. Peaceful and Free. God bless all the creatures that dwell there and the majestic horses that remain in their natural habitat.

Beautiful and wild, unfortunately the visit cost is out of reach for most Nova Scotian's...but maybe just as well. It keeps it pure and untouched.

[@MrJakebb123]

That's why it is still so beautiful, because people lack the ability and interest in going there.

[@halwakka504]

Fortunately, not unfortunately. :) Tens of thousands of visitors every year would wreck the ecosystem there. It'd be amazing to visit there though.

É um verdadeiro paraíso!!

[@rajdhirhi9289]

Very good place. I see looking

[@eliash3990]

Are there people living there or has there ever been anybody living there?

[@parkscanada]

Hi Elias! Thank you for your question. According to the Friends of Sable Island Society, "There has been a continuous human presence on Sable Island since 1801 when the colonial government in Nova Scotia founded a lifesaving establishment to reduce the suffering and loss of life and cargo that resulted from the frequent shipwrecks on and near Sable’s shores. There have been an estimated 350 shipwrecks near the Island, the most recent being in 1999, earning Sable Island the title “Graveyard of the Atlantic”." They have a great compilation of human history on the island on their website: www.sableislandfriends.ca/category/human/. You can also find more information on the Parks Canada website: parks.canada.ca/pn-np/ns/sable.

^ that didn't answer the question. Google says up to 6 people inhabit the island.

[@TheRandomINFJ]

It's 2024. It's $3,550 per person for day trips 7am- 7pm.

[@snipes_1138]

My tour guide while I was there told me that the actual cost of running the helicopter is $1,700.

[@Kale595]

No. You are not allowed to stay overnight on sable island.

[@MargiePrisner]

I believe it is Orion by Caleb Etheridge

[@parkscanada]

That's correct! :)
