Mahone Bay, NS

The Mi’kmaq inhabited Mahone Bay for more than 13,500 years before the first Acadian settlers arrived in the area in the early 1600s. Their stay ended in the 1750s when they were replaced by German, Swiss, and Montbéliardais settlers under the leadership of mariner Ephraim Cook, establishing a mill at the mouth of each of Mahone Bay's two rivers and, over the decades, a separate community evolved at Mahone Bay with blacksmiths, merchants, a large school, churches, and shipyards.

Six major shipyards produced wooden vessels in Mahone Bay between 1850 – 1942, documented in detail at the Mahone Bay Museum, and our heritage was celebrated with the annual Mahone Bay Wooden Boat Festival until recent years. The yachts built in Mahone Bay are now fiberglass and we’ve become a long-standing picturesque tourism destination as well as a haven for entrepreneurs and business startups, making Mahone Bay the fastest growing population of any municipality in Nova Scotia.
