The Bay of Fundy is about as mainstream as you get in Nova Scotia, but to local Ontairons such as ourselves, it’s may seem a little obscure. This UNESCO world heritage site offer spectacular views and whale watching at both low, and high tide. At high-tide, your experience is a little hands-off, having to view the Bay from a distance. But at low-tide, you’re able to walk alongside the base of the spectacular cliffs, and which at certain times of the day, is the ocean floor.
