The Digby Outdoor Recreation Centre

Nestled in the heart of our community, the Digby Outdoor Recreation Centre stands out as a vibrant hub for outdoor adventure and connection. It serves as a place where memories are made, friendships are formed, and connections are deepened. Whether you’re gliding across the water on a paddle board or enjoying a friendly game of disc golf, this centre invites everyone to embrace the outdoors and celebrate the joy of being together. The property has been used by various groups, including Digby Area Recreation, for day camps, paddling lessons, and workshops.
The Municipality of Digby continues to seek partner organizations who need space for outdoor activities. The Municipality is also working on plans for further developing the site as an outdoor recreation facility.
Besides the waterfront, beach and docks, the Digby Outdoor Recreation Centre has a group shelter with two plumbed washrooms.
