Oak Island is a 57-hectare (140-acre) privately owned island in Lunenburg County on the south shore of Nova Scotia, Canada, northeast of Boston, MA. The tree-covered island is one of about 360 small islands in Mahone Bay and rises to a maximum of 11 metres (36 feet) above sea level. The island is located 200 metres (660 feet) from shore and connected to the mainland by a causeway and gate.
The island is best known as the site of various theories about possible buried treasure or historical artifacts, and the resulting centuries of ongoing expensive exploration, and the subject of the History Channel's series The Curse of Oak Island.
