About Sable Island

The Wild Horses Of Sable Island

Sable Island sits roughly 160 kilometres off the coast of Nova Scotia — a crescent of sand 42 kilometres long, with a few hundred wild horses on it, the world’s largest grey seal colony, and no trees.

The horses were introduced in the 1700s and left there. They’ve been protected by law since 1960, became an official symbol of Nova Scotia in 2008, and the island was made a National Park Reserve in 2013.
