Historically, this 'spooky' Sable island was associated with 350 shipwrecks and a mass grave of many lives.

Mother Nature has created countless mysterious and strange islands in the world and Sable Island is one of them.

Located 300km southeast of the city of Halifax, in Nova Scotia province (Canada), Sable island is formed from sand, hence the French name "L'île de Sable" (Cat Island).

The area of ​​Sable Island is only about 34km² square, 35km long, shaped like a sickle.

The island is low lying in the middle of the vast sea, the widest point measured on the island is only 1.6 km.

But the special feature of Sable Island is its ability to teleport "god". Every time it gets windy, Sable Island moves like a sailboat far from its old position.

For nearly 200 years, the island has moved on a 20km long road, moving 100m on average each year.

Although it is not the largest "sand island" in the world, it is a very dangerous trap for boats passing through the Atlantic Ocean.

Due to being formed from the shoals between the shallow waters of the continental shelf and the sea, Sable is quite isolated.

In addition, the cold Labrador ocean current that flows from the Arctic Ocean will combine with the hot ocean to create dense fogs, even scary "hurricanes".

Therefore, boats that travel through this island will be disoriented, crash into obstacles and sink to the ocean floor.

The first shipwreck took place here in 1583. This is one of the ships used in the British politician's exploration of the country - Humphrey Gilbert.

When trying to cross this dangerous island, Gilbert's ship HMS Delight sank after being stranded on a sandy beach of Sable Island. Delight was submerged to a depth of 10 meters and dragged 85 lives into it.

15 years later, the Marquis de La Roche became the island's next victim. Only 12 crew members survived and lost on the island, until 1603 they were rescued.

According to historical records, the last shipwreck occurred in 1947, when Manhasset and his crew operated the steamship through the Atlantic Ocean.

Fortunately, thanks to the lifeguards at the meteorological station, the entire crew was rescued and safely returned.

It is difficult to observe the wrecks sinking around the island, as they were all crushed and buried deep in the sand.

In addition to being famous for shipwrecks, Sable Island is also home to more than 400 wild horses.

They were descendants of the horses that were confiscated from the voyages of Acadians, passing through the island that were forced to leave reluctantly.

In 1871, a hydro-meteorological station was built on Sable and managed by the Canadian government to provide weather information for ships. It becomes the only area where people live on this "wilderness" island.

Currently, the Canadian government recognizes Sable Island as a National Park and preserves the population of organisms here to serve future scientific research.
