Experience Bluenose II

Nova Scotia's Sailing Ambassador

There are many striking images of Bluenose II that have been captured over the years, but none compare to the experience of seeing the real thing. As you walk on deck, you can’t help but imagine what it must have been like in the days when fishing schooners were alive with activity, sailing the waters of the North Atlantic.

The chance to see and experience Bluenose II is one that’s not to be missed.
