Sable Island has all the makings of a myth: a forty one kilometers long sandbar, three hundred kilometres southeast of Halifax, known as the Graveyard of the Atlantic. Now a research and rescue station, the remote and otherworldly island was recently named a national park by the Government of Canada. A legend for centuries, Sable Island beckons the intrepid adventurer for a closer look at its many mysteries on a unique Canadian Arctic expedition cruise.

The trip was terrific with great planning on your part. Most of the adventures were not mainstream and somewhat off the beaten path which made it especially enjoyable!! We felt taken care of and you all were readily available to respond to questions and issues. I would highly recommend your company and friends have already expressed interest based on our pictures and excitement.
