Shipwrecks of Big Tub Harbour

Aboard a cruise with Blue Heron and get a closer look at the two shipwrecks located on Big Tub Harbour.

Blue Heron cruises will take visitors to the Sweepstakes, which collided into a rock, sinking it into the shallow water near the Lightstation. The second of the two is the City of Grand Rapids, which, due to a fire, was towed out of Little Tub Harbour and eventually drifted into Big Tub Harbour where it burned underwater.

Both shipwrecks can be seen near the top of the surface and are best viewed from the glass-bottom boat tours offered by Blue Heron.
