In Canada, there is a wonderful island characterized by its white sands, crystal-clear waves, and wild horses. Sable Island is located 290 kilometers southeast of Halifax in Nova Scotia.
The island stretches for 42 kilometers and is famous for the wild horses that roam there.
The first wild horses arrived on the island in the 18th century and have thrived without human intervention since then, and currently, there are 500 horses in the Sable Island National Park reserve.
These horses are protected under the Canadian National Parks Act and the Canadian National Parks Wildlife Regulations.
People are not allowed to interact with the horses, feed them, or touch them, and visitors must remain at least 20 meters away from them.
At the same time, you can enjoy beautiful picnics on the sands and among the various plants on the island.
The island is nicknamed the “Graveyard of the Atlantic” due to the many shipwrecks along its shores.
The remote island can be accessed from January to February and from June to October, by plane, helicopter, or ship, but you must obtain permission from Parks Canada first.
The daily entrance fee is estimated at $31.75.
