What you will visit:

Saint John (guided tour)
Situated on Canada's southeastern Atlantic seaboard, where the Bay of Fundy meets the Saint John River, the harbor town of Saint John blends its maritime heritage with modern flair. The landmarks that have survived centuries are stalwart emblems of the oldest incorporated city in Canada.

Reversing Rapids
From Fallsview Park, witness the Reversing Rapids. This unique natural phenomenon caused by the monstrously high tides of the Bay of Fundy that reverse the flow of the powerful Saint John River.

Old City Market
Located in the heart of Saint John, the oldest working farmers' market in Canada is still a popular meeting place for local residents. The market first opened in 1876 and its distinctive roof mimics the shape of a ship's hull.

St. Martins
The 200-year-old village features twin covered bridges, a small harbor and a lighthouse, favorite subjects for photographers and painters. You'll join your guide for a brief walking tour of the harbor, visit the lighthouse, and stroll the quaint gardens nestled between the covered bridges.

St. Martins Sea Caves and Beach
Over time, waves have carved caves out of the cliffs. Together with your guide you'll comb the rocky beach for "wish rocks," catch a glimpse of the sea caves under the cliffs and take a closer look at these unique caverns (tide permitting).

Place Fort La Tour
Overlooking the beautiful Bay of Fundy, travel back in time to the 1600's when you visit Place Fort La Tour and experience life at that time, complete with Palisade, Bastion, and Blacksmith Forge, all nestled amongst replica fort buildings.

What you will see along the way:
Then, settle in for a one-hour, scenic drive to charming St. Martins.

Photo Opportunities:
Perched atop a rocky cliff, Fort Howe, offers commanding view of Saint John, your ship, and the Bay of Fundy.

Light Lunch:
Refresh during your day with a delicious seafood chowder light lunch in the fishing village of St. Martins.

Special Notes

Comfortable walking shoes are recommended. Due to the extreme nature of the Bay of Fundy tides, we cannot guarantee the stage of the tide cycle during your visit. Walking to the sea caves is tidal dependent and at guest's discretion as the beach is rocky; however, the Caves can be viewed at any time from the beach.
