💡 Tips
- Always check the daily Bay of Fundy tide charts before planning beach walks. The tidal range is extreme, so keep an eye on the water level.
- Pack layers, as coastal fog can roll in quickly and drop the temperature significantly.
- Wear sturdy, waterproof footwear if you plan to explore the red mudflats, as they can be quite slippery.
- Bring binoculars to spot shorebirds migrating along the rugged coastline.
🍽 Food
Try a fresh lobster roll from one of the seasonal seafood stands operating along the coastal drive.
Look for locally caught, pan-seared scallops at nearby regional dining rooms.
A local dried seaweed snack; you can buy it in small bags at local convenience stores or farmers' markets.
🛍 Shopping · 🧘 Quiet spots
Coastal studios often sell handmade pottery inspired by the distinct colors and textures of the Bay of Fundy.
Pull over at small roadside stands offering fresh seasonal berries and local maple products.
Walk directly on the ocean floor during low tide for a surreal, quiet experience away from any crowds.
Pull over at uncrowded viewpoints along the coastal road to simply listen to the crashing tidal waves.
