Bay of Fundy


The Bay of Fundy stretches out over 320 km across Canada's epic East Coast. Separating Nova Scotia and New Brunswick it is home to the highest tides on earth, the rarest whales in the world, you can even find dinosaur fossils; convincing an international panel of well respected experts in 2014 to choose the Bay of Fundy as one of the natural wonders of the world. Some would say a visit to Nova Scotia would not be complete without seeing the remarkable seascape that has been created.

Fun Fact: Did you know that over 160 billion tonnes of water move in and out of the Bay of Fundy, every day, twice a day?  That’s more than the combined flow of all the freshwater rivers on our planet!
