Grand Pre/Bay of Fundy / Hall's Harbour
Overview
Available languages

Mobile ticket
The Bay of Fundy's shape and prevailing ocean currents conspire to create the highest tides in the world.
Experience what happens as 3,680 billion cubic feet of water pour in and out of the "funnel" not once but twice each day. Boats and even ocean-going ships can be stranded high and dry.
Vast tidal flats are waiting to be explored. That's how Hall's Harbour began in 1779 - as a pirate base for local scalawag Samuel Hall, his native Mi'Kmaq girlfriend and a band of cutthroat Yankee privateers. They would prey on the Planters and Loyalists to the British Crown. Finally, remember that this is a real fishing village, one that takes its living from the sea - not one created to please tourists. The fishermen and other village folk are usually busy with their work, but you'll find that they will often take the time to pass time the with visitors to their community. Why not come and spend some time with us?

5.00The day was guided and driven well by Jonathan- we loved the area, learned something of its history, enjoyed the seafood and were enthralled by the speed of the incoming tide… all while being entertained. What a great day… thanks

5.00This is a great opportunity to see Nova Scotia beyond Halifax. Our driver Jonathan was very informative and helpful. The stops were well chosen including the historic, scenic and wineries. Poor weather intervened but this was a trip which I recommend highly.

5.00Jonathan was a great tour guide/driver. We had a lovely drive from Halifax to the Minas Basin where we got to see the beautiful scenery and walk on the ocean floor. We also stopped for a delicious lunch in Port Williams.
