The Bay of Fundy
The Bay of Fundy is renowned for the greatest tides on earth which, when combined with the highest cliffs on mainland Nova Scotia, make for a spectacular sight indeed. Our route follows the boundary of a continental collision that thrust Africa against North America eons ago and has left us with a geological wonderland. We will weave among rock gardens, poke into sea caves and glide under towering spires draped with seaweed far above the kayaks. It is a remarkable coastline which changes by the minute with the ebb and flow of the Fundy waters, and a unique sea kayaking destination.
5 Day Tour: July 13-17
The Canso Archipelago
Join us on our last multi-day tour of the season as we meander about this fascinating archipelago, one of the most isolated coastal regions of the province. It is a stark and compelling landscape highlighting huge glacial boulders perched precariously, overlooking the uninhabited offshore islands. Shallow water covers the white bedrock in sheltered lagoons where the sea becomes a brilliant turquoise more reminiscent of the Carabbean than the North Atlantic and white sand beaches inhabit the protected coves. Even more impressive than the familiar Peggys Cove [but without the people]. This is a memorable journey.
