Harbour Retreat

Reclaim your sense of wonder with nature, self, and technology.

Harbour Retreat: The Wonder Path

Harbour Retreat is a small retreat space in Musquodoboit Harbour, Nova Scotia, designed for rest, creativity, and renewal. We offer three retreat experiences to explore:

  1. Wonder Labs – 2-hour workshops for a quick spark of inspiration.
  2. Portals of Wonder – 4-week seasonal programs that blend smartphone tech with nature.
  3. Solo Retreats – 7-night self-guided immersions.

All retreats draw on seven reflection zones across the property — from a meditation labyrinth and forest bathing path to a dark sky stargazing platform, yoga perch, fire pit, an outdoor creative studio and a journalling nook, giving guests a range of spaces for reflection, play, and connection.

Spark - Short Experiences

Harbour Retreat’s Wonder Labs are playful, hands-on workshops for anyone wanting a taste of wonder. Workshops are typically on a Saturday and are 2 hours in length. Ideal for locals and day-trippers to the area.  Browse our Autumn menu!
