Alma on the Fundy Bay


We made it the Canadian National Park on Fundy Bay. Tides range 28 feet between low and high, the largest difference in North America. Here we are at a lookout spot heading down the ridge towards Alma. Behind us you can see the sea fog heading into Alma.




Moving further down the ridge towards town we were given a wonderful view of the sea fog heading inland. We were also blessed with low tide.





We were able to walk out to the bay floor during the low tide. During high tide we would be twenty feet feet under water from this spot.




Yes it is low tide. All the boats in the harbor rest on the harbor bottom during low tide with carefully placed braces hanging over the sides of the ship where in normal waters you would hang bumpers.




Another wonderful view of the massive tidal bay void of water.

Another view (which we have 100's of photos) show the channel out to see.
