Join Me on Sable Island!

November 11, 2023

Imagine a winter experience on wild Sable Island!

Winter reveals another side of this magical wonder of nature....wild horses in thick fuzzy coats, over 60,000 newborn seal pups, and swaying grasses on sand dunes in muted golden hues against the backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean.

There is nothing on earth like Sable Island at any time of year, but winter brings with it a breathtaking landscape, with temperatures much milder than the mainland due to ocean currents from the south. And of course, the star attraction: the wild horses of Sable Island. A paradise for photographers and non-photographers alike!

Departure from Halifax Nova Scotia in conjunction with Parks Canada licensed tour operator Kattuk Expeditions. The Jan 26th 2024 trip is sold out, but there are still a few spots available for Jan 23rd and Feb 1st. I will be guiding the Jan 23rd and Jan 26th adventures.

And just in time for the holidays, Kattuk Expeditions is offering $500 off per person!

When you book your spot for Jan 23, enter discount code WINTERSABLEJAN23 at checkout. For the Feb 1st trip, enter discount code WINTERSABLEFEB01 at checkout.

Book your spot here.

Price for a 1-day experience on Sable Island is $3350 CAN, plus $250 CAN for rental of mandatory helicopter flight suit.  (provided at departure)

Would love to share this experience with you!   If you would like to chat about the trip by phone or ZOOM, email me : sandy@sandysharkey.com
