About

Dixon’s Zodiac Seafari is located in the tiny fishing village of Neil’s Harbour, just below the lighthouse. Join us and embark on a minimum two-hour adventure in search of different whale species such as fin, pilot, minke, humpbacks and others. You will also encounter various seabirds, bald eagles, seals and, in August and September, the impressive leatherback turtle. Combine this with the rocky cliff shoreline of northern Cape Breton and it will be an unforgettable experience!

  • We supply all the gear required on your adventure, rain or shine
