Bay of Fundy, New Brunswick

F
The Hopewell Rocks National Park in New Brunswick features the Flower Pot Rocks which are accesible by foot during low tide.  During high tide, the rocks are filled with water.

In a few more minutes, the beach were I was standing was filled up with water also.  The water is very muddy in this part of the Bay of Fundy.

F3
This might look like a river, but this is part of the Bay of Fundy where the water levels vary so much between low and high tides.  When we first got to Moncton, these waterways were almost empty.

F4
St. Martins is on the southern part of the Bay of Fundy.  It is clearer water there, and it was so peaceful.

F5
St. Martins has covered bridges also.

F6
The lobster traps in St. Martins are ready to go to catch that delicious Bay of Fundy lobster.

F7
St. Martins had a nice little bay where the fisherman go out to sea from.

    The Bay of Fundy is attached to the Atlantic Ocean on the eastern side of Canada.  Just like the water can get displaced easily from one end of a tub to another if someone splashes it, this bay is shaped like a bathtub too and creates the world's highest tides.  At low, one can walk on the sea floor in many parts of the Bay.  At high tide, the water from the bay will roll into small waterways and fill up really fast.
