A tribute to Swissair Flight 111, which crashed into the waters off Peggy's Cove in 1998, this memorial commemorates the 229 casualties and honors the courageous local fisherfolk involved in recovery efforts and in comforting the grieving families.

A local artist created the striking 100-foot memorial, a bas-relief carved from local granite. The memorial commemorates fishermen and the fishing industry.
