As much as I love walking along the coast of Bay of Fundy's many tidal beaches, I'm also wildly fond of getting on the water to experience whale watching or sea kayaking.
Yesterday I experienced one of those 'best day of my life' days on a kayak tour with NovaShores Adventures along the coast of Cape Chignecto Provincial Park in Advocate Harbour, Nova Scotia.
We 12 (both experienced and brand new kayakers) paddled along the dramatic coastline past sheer 200 foot cliffs, secluded coves, and carved rock formations - including the famous Three Sisters sea stacks.
It was a warm day (20 C, 75 F) and an exciting paddle (leaving at high tide and returning a few hours later on the same beach where the tide was waaaay out!). These tours are available from May to late October (winds permitting!) from the Eatonville day-use entrance of Cape Chignecto Park.
If there are any in your party who'd rather not kayak, they can visit the visitors' centre and the two trails in the day-use area and watch you kayak below!
I didn't have a camera with me but this YouTube video gives you a great idea of the kayaking experience at Cape Chignecto Park!!

At the risk of joining a mutual admiration society, I just wanted to say great video and blog. Cape Chignecto is one of my favourite activities and places on the Bay of Fundy. Well done!
