A 4k DJI drone-powered video of the breakwater protecting the harbour at Digby, Nova Scotia. The breakwater protects the harbour wharves from waves generated by strong winter nor’easters. #4k #drone #canada #breakwater #novascotia
In 2007, construction of the 300 m breakwater began, using a traditional armour stone design. A wooden crib at the end of the breakwater is filled with ballast rock to provide optimal protection for the harbour during low tides.
In the distance, the ferry to Saint John, New Brunswick, can be seen in the terminal, near Digby Gut.
