Situated between the Canadian provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, the Bay of Fundy is a beautiful marine area that supports a multitude of ecosystems.

The bay of Fundy records the highest tides in the world annually, usually around 17m. The record, reached as the result of storm conditions, was a tide of 21.6m in 1869.
