Although there were and are a lot of other things we want to see and people we want to visit on this trip, the goal was to visit the Canadian Maritime Provinces.
And yesterday we crossed the border into New Brunswick and the Atlantic Time Zone. We are staying first at New River Beach Provincial Park along the Bay of Fundy. This place was recommended to us by a couple from New Brunswick that we met while touring a decommissioned oil rig in Morgan City, Louisiana.
I love our site. It’s quite secluded in a spruce and fir woods with a floor of moss.
The Bay of Fundy is famous for its tides. Yesterday afternoon Matey and I walked down to an overlook of the beach. We were within an hour of low tide.
Today, after a hike, I took another picture from the same overlook. The distant shore had disappeared into the fog, and the beach had disappeared into the tide. The tide here is about 18 feet.
Our hike was through very drippy woods. There were nice boardwalks, bridges and steps, but they were very slippery from the rain and fog.
The woods were wonderfully green. I loved the bright green of the new growth on the trees…
and the softer green of the ferns.
We were walking out a trail on the very rocky Barnaby Head.
We came out at a cove…
where we were able to walk down to the stony beach and onto the rocks. You could hear the stones tumbling with the waves. Beautiful!

That’s a pretty big tide change! It looks like you could just about walk out to that little island on dry ground at low tide! I like the boardwalk trail and the bright green of the new growth on the evergreen trees! Very nice – enjoy!

I just read that it is the highest tide in the world. I did not know that. Also, they get higher the further up the bay you go, so at our next stop they should approach 40 feet!

WOW!!! I hope you can get some pics of low and high tide there! When you say “it” is the highest…. do you mean the Bay of Fundy, since, evidently where you are now is NOT the highest tide in the world?
