Sable Island is a thin crescent of shifting sand
located at the edge of the Continental Shelf, 290 km southeast of
Halifax, Nova Scotia. Home to the famous Sable Island wild horses, grey
seals, and unique plants, birds, and insects. Known as “The Graveyard of
the Atlantic” due to the more than 350 shipwrecks off its shores.
L’île de Sable est un croissant de sable situé à la
limite du plateau continental, à 290 km d’Halifax. Elle est peuplée de
chevaux sauvages, de phoques gris, des plantes, d’oiseaux et d’insectes.
Environ 350 navires ont fait naufrage autour de l’île, ce qui lui a valu
le nom de « Cimetière de l’Atlantique ».
