Fundy Bay

The last stop on our trip was Fundy Bay in New Brunswick. This bay has the largest tidal changes in the world - up to 44 feet tall! It really is an incredible sight to see... we started out at the Hopewell rocks which are formed from the coastal bluffs eroding from the fast tidal changes. Then we headed into the National Park to explore the tidal pools, where we saw star fish and crabs and some dolphins were playing just off shore! Then we watched the tide come into an estuary. It was incredible to see just how fast the water came in... we kept having to get up and pick a new rock to sit on!



Overall, it was a great ending to our incredible trip!
