Bay of Fundy

Hello again and welcome to the story of our day out with Debbie and George, our great friends and neighbours who took us to visit The Bay of Fundy National Park and Hopewell Rocks



The Bay of Fundy has the highest tides in the world where the sea levels rise on average between 4 to 6ft an hour, with some 100 billion tonnes of water flowing in and out twice a day. To see more on the Bay of Fundy National Park please have a look at www.pc.gc.ca/fundy

On the way to the Nationl Park we spent some time visiting Hopewell Rocks where one can see the rise and fall of the tide at a rate of 32 to 46 feet. To see more of Hopewell Rocks please have a look at http://www.hopewellrocks.ca/



We enjoyed lunch in the National Park and we were introduced to the 'famous sticky buns' at Alma, a small fishing Village located on the Bay of Fundy. This area is known for its delicious lobsters and scallops.


The websites provided will give you a much better story than we can tell so we will sign off until next time. So enjoy the read and stay happy and well.



Love Bev and Ross
