Digby Harbour

Digby sits at the heart of Nova Scotia's scallop fishing industry, earning its reputation as the "Scallop Capital of the World." The town's picturesque waterfront overlooks Annapolis Basin, where the world's highest tides rise and fall twice daily, and a fleet of distinctive red-and-white scallop boats work the rich waters of the Bay of Fundy. This camera captures the view from the Fundy Complex, a waterfront landmark that has welcomed visitors for over 60 years.

The complex is home to The Fundy Restaurant—a local institution serving fresh-off-the-boat seafood across five distinct dining areas, a three-tier balcony, and an 80-foot solarium with sweeping harbour views. Next door, Dockside Restaurant and Bar offers casual waterfront dining, while Dockside Whale Watching and Charters launch right from the floating dock below. In summer, you might spot minke whales, seals, and seabirds just offshore.

Digby also serves as a gateway to the province, with the Saint John ferry connecting Nova Scotia to New Brunswick across the Bay of Fundy. Whether you're sampling the famous Digby scallops, watching the fishing fleet come in, or simply taking in the Maritime atmosphere, this historic waterfront delivers an authentic taste of coastal Nova Scotia.
