Ghost Ships

Forty years before the Titanic, Marrs Island, Nova Scotia was the site of one of the worst civilian maritime disasters in history.

For more than 200 years, tales of a Phantom Ship have surrounded the waters of Pictou, Nova Scotia-a mysterious ship engulfed in flames that suddenly vanishes into the night.

On December 6, 1917, two ships collided in Halifax Harbour, resulting in the largest man-made, non-nuclear explosion in history!

For decades, residents of Portuguese Cove, Nova Scotia have reported unexploded ordinance washing up on their shores.
