Canso Islands National Historic Site of Canada
What's New
Get to know Canso Islands, the economic centre of Nova Scotia more than 200 years ago, at a time when dried fish were plentiful, merchants ruled the seas and soldiers waged losing battles. Learn about the Island's vulnerability to military attack. And see what prompted Canso Islands' sudden destruction in the spring of 1744.
Recommended Visiting Time
Allow 30 minutes to explore the Visitor Reception Centre. Plan slightly more than one hour to visit Grassy Island: it takes about 15 minutes each way by boat and about half an hour to hike the self-guiding trail.
