Introducing Digby

Known for its scallops, mild climate and its daily ferry to Saint John, New Brunswick, Digby is nestled in a protected inlet off the Bay of Fundy. Settled by United Empire Loyalists in 1783, it’s now home to the largest fleet of scallop boats in the world.

While Digby has been a tourist mecca for more than a century, attractions are few. If you’re here in passing, the best things to do are to stroll the waterfront and eat as many delicious scallops as your belly can hold.
