The Bay of Fundy has the highest tides in the world, which lead to an interesting phenomenon called a "tidal bore". As the incoming tide works its way into and up a river, it runs into the outgoing current of the river and forms a wave, or small series of waves, as the higher tide pushes its way up the river, actually reversing the flow of the river itself.
We watched the bore from two different locations on the same day last week when we were in Nova Scotia. The first was at the Fundy Tidal Bore Interpretive Centre and the second was in Truro at the Fundy Discovery Site.
I've collected the following suggested locations for viewing the bore: the Shubenacadie River at South Maitland (Glooscap Trail Route 236), the Salmon River in Truro (Hwy 102 Exit 14, Tidal Bore Rd.), River Hebert (Fundy Shore Drive Route 242) or Truro Tidal Bore Viewing Visitor Centre. Would appreciate any opinions on the spot best for us. Thanks.
