Brier Island Big Meadow Bog Trail
Open year-round
Mariner Cruises has been offering Nova Scotia whale watching and birding tours off Brier Island, in the Bay of Fundy since 1994. We invite you to join us for an exciting sea adventure from the Whale Watching Capital of Nova Scotia!
Come explore Brier Island and the magnificent Bay of Fundy, home to inspiring marine life, rare bird species and the friendliest people you can meet. Finback whales, minke whales and harbour porpoises are the first to arrive in the spring. In June, the humpbacks begin to return; by late June they are abundant, and Atlantic white-sided dolphins are often seen. All tours are narrated by local naturalists, who are well-versed in the dozens of marine mammals and bird species that visit this important ecological region.
Mariner Cruises is owned and operated by Penny Graham, lifelong resident of Westport, Brier Island. The company has been offering unique whale watching and seabird adventures since 1994. Tours run from late June to early October. Tours are approximately 3 hours in length and sail at 8:30 am 12:30 pm and 4:30 pm daily, weather and passenger count permitting.
