Bay of Fundy.
From Saint John, New Brunswick we went to Saint Martins to start
The Bay of Fundy Trail. It is a 30km stretch of the Fundy Bay
Provincial Park with lookouts over the beaches, cliffs and waterfalls.
The bay of Fundy has huge tides of up to 18m each day which leads to
spectacular scenery and the aim is to catch locals high tide to see the difference.
Our tidal difference wasn’t extreme but you could see the difference at
Hopewell Rocks Provincial Park.
St Martins fairly low tide.

There is a tiny waterfall in the middle.
This should also be a waterfall but there is no water because of the drought here.
The ranger who followed us most of the time took this photo - you can see the sea.
