Tangier is a rural community on the Eastern Shore of Nova Scotia, Canada, in the Halifax Regional Municipality. It lies along the Marine Drive on Nova Scotia Trunk 7 approximately 23 km (14 mi) west of Sheet Harbour. Tangier is situated at the head of Tangier Harbour.[2][3] The Mi'kmaq name for the settlement was Wospegeak, translating to "the sunshine is reflected from the water". The community is located at the mouth of Tangier River.[2][4] The present name of the community is most likely derived from the shipwreck of the schooner Tangier in 1830.[5][6] In 1858, gold was discovered in the area, which sparked gold mining operations in the area for the next 30 years.[6] The community has a church and several private fishing wharfs, as well as a post office.[7]
