Tourism Nova Scotia is trying. In 2015 the Black Loyalist Heritage Centre opened in Birchtown Nova Scotia. Approx 2 hrs south of Halifax. Well worth a visit if you’re on the South shore. https://blackloyalist.novascotia.ca/

Don’t know for sure but Birchtown and THE Oak island are only about 150km apart up the coast toward Halifax.
