New Brunswick Bay of Fundy Road Trip
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 жов 2024
- A New Brunswick Bay of Fundy road trip is one for the bucket list-one that will tease the senses, mystify the mind, sooth the soul and embolden the explorer in you. New Brunswick is located in Canada’s Maritime region, which also makes up Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island (PEI). Bordering the state of Maine to the west and Quebec to the North, New Brunswick is flanked by water on the other two sides of the province, most notably the Bay of Fundy. New Brunswick is a large province, so this Bay of Fundy road trip focuses on the coastal parts of the province.
Some of the highlights of this Bay of Fundy road trip include:
-Saint John Harbor Cruise, Skywalk, Farmers Market, Live music and more.
-St. Martins for hiking the low tides and kayaking the high tides.
-St. Andrews for a hike around New River Beach park, Whale Watching excursion, Farmers Market and Golf.
-Ferry to explore Grand Manan Island.
-Explore Fundy National Park and witness the world's highest and lowest tides at Hopewell Rocks.
-This New Brunswick road trip ends in Moncton for several activities before heading to PEI.

I've been many times and I was never disappointed. The seafood is to die for, the people are friendly and welcoming.
I have to agree with you on all points. Thanks for taking the time to watch and post a comment. I hope you will subscribe to my channel to see more road trip travel videos. Cheers, Mike
I love how accessible nature is in NB
Yes, it's a wonderful place. Thanks for watching. Hope you'll check out some of my other videos, several from Canada. Cheers, Mike
Now I am adding the Bay of Fundy to my bucket list.
Sweet. Thanks so much for watching. Glad you enjoyed the video. Cheers, Mike
I was here as a five year old. It was scary because I thought the tide would rush in like a tsunami if you weren’t completely up the stairs by the exact time on the clock sign.
Thanks for watching and sharing your experience. I too have these memories being at the beach and worrying about being swept away. Hope you get a chance to visit again one day, it's a fun place. Cheers, Mike
Thanks for adding deer Island and Campobello, that was nice of you ..we have more Beauty picture perfect scenery then most of what you've seen..thanks for the help..
My pleasure. I have no doubt...NB is a beautiful place. Thanks so much for watching. Cheers, Mike
When my cruise was canceled due to Covid, I decided to make a “trip of the imagination“ through Canada. Now visiting bay of Fundy and St. John’s are on the top of my wish list! Thanks for a great video-I felt like I was really there!
Ha! Thank you...really appreciate it.🙏 If you enjoyed that video, I have many others from around the world, including this playlist of several destinations in Canada. ua-cam.com/play/PLpwbh-wOxJK1aa3QZf-SM0qqejDAtWq79.html
Nice to know I'm not the only person who does this. I also like to explore places on Google Maps, wander around on street view and such. Been exploring Japan a lot as my brother lives there, and I hope to visit when the border opens again.

I’m so glad you went to Grand Manan! My favourite place on earth. ♥️
I agree...that is one amazing place! Thanks so much for watching, hope you will subscribe to see more of my road trip travel videos. Cheers, Mike
This is a lovely video, thank you! I'm British, now living in Ontario, and I've been so lucky to see parts of New Brunswick, including Saint John and I loved it - and it was February, freezing cold snow! It was a wonderful atmosphere! I could happily live there. It's got the vibe xx

His intro on the bridge is at Swallowtail on Grand Manan. The grey house in the background was my grandparents place and where my mom grew up.
Canuck Fundy Oh, how cool! Such a beautiful area!
@@RoadTripTravel Hi Mike. That house is at Pettes Cove. I love the sound of the waves there in storms. It's a cobble beach and the stones roll and rumble with the waves. It was a sound I truly missed when I lived on the Prairies during the '70's. Be well.
Wood fire pizza fresh lemonade and music awwwww
Yes...so good. Thanks for watching. I have many videos on Maritime Canada, if you're interested, here is a playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLpwbh-wOxJK1aa3QZf-SM0qqejDAtWq79.html Cheers, Mike

Great video. I travelled throughout NB in 2018 and stayed in Edmunston, New River, Bay of Fundy, and Kouchibouguac park. All places were great!

Spanish and Go Thank you so much! Really appreciate the kind words. Hope you have subscribed for more road trip travel videos. All the best. Mike
Mike's Road Trip subscribed! We’ve been watching your videos for awhile though. Remember us from TBEX? Jim and May - the gringo/Mexican couple that asked you about adding captions to videos back in Alabama.
You had me at whale watching and outdoor activities. love the vibe of this place.
Hey Archana...thank you so much for taking the time to watch this video. Glad you enjoyed it. Hope you can make it there one day.
@J OneLife It really is a wonderful place.
Nathan Henderson I really did have such a wonderful time. I’d love to come back to explore other areas of the province. Hope you enjoyed the video and will subscribe for more road trip travel videos. Cheers, Mike
thanks for the road trip. With COVID-19 and the borders closed, i can't get up to St. Martins, NB, where I've been spending summers for the past 20 years...but it was fun to see it with you. Next time you go to St. Martins, you have to stay a few more days, please, and see all the other wonders there: the miracle beach stones of many colors, fascinating shapes, and many origins from 4 continents; many other geological wonders; plus the two covered bridges over the Irish River; the Country Inn (also known as the Castle): the Quaco Museum; the views from West Quaco Road and from Mosher Hill...Not to mention the Fundy Trail; the death-defying suspension bridge over the Salmon River; the history of ship building at the Interpretation Center; sea captains' homes (some with ghosts); five different beaches each with its own character and geology; and lots of other sights, with delicious sweet clean air, natural air conditioning from the Bay...You could do a week there...no trouble. As for the city of Saint John, you whisked through terribly fast and left out the historic stories of the Loyalists who founded the city. GO MORE SLOWLY, please on your trips. You left me breathless and wanting slower pacing. Gorgeous photography, and lovely hikes. Good job.
My pleasure, glad you enjoyed the video. That's too bad you can't cross the boarder, it really is a wonderful area to spend the summer. Thanks for sharing the additional info. If you're interested, I have produced a number of other Maritime Canada videos. Cheers, Mike
Amazing nature

Loved the video
Thank you so much. Really appreciate it!
East Hants Nova Scotia is the home of the world’s largest tides
E.M Productions Thanks for watching, hope you enjoy the video. I also did one in Nova Scotia.
The depth of our tides at the saint John mill are 175 to 200 m in depth Vs Nova Scotia it reaches 16 m in depth with a 3.5 m change from time to time based on low tide or high tide In New Brunswick we have the gulf of Maine in one side then the Passamaquoddy bay which flow into The bay of fundy which then heads towards Nova Scotia and meets up with the St. John river at our mill and the Saint John river is actually flowing from the our skirts closer to the highway heading towards Nova Scotia into Saint John , Saint John is about the halfway point between both ends of New Brunswick Everyone claims that they have the highest tides that live in the bay of fundy as the bay of fundy is home to world largest tides St. Andrews and the highway to Nova Scotia is on opposite ends of the province of New Brunswick But the watershed for the bay of fundy is gulf of Maine meaning that it’s feed from Maines waters into ours which then becomes the st croix river staring at the boarder of Canada in st Stephen and the Passamaquoddy bay in st Andrews The collision causes the rapids as the Saint John river and the bay of fundy collide at the Saint John pulp mill , Which causes the bay of find to go straight and the St. John river to
reverse and go opposite direction before it feeds out the other way that it was originally headed which is how we got the name reversing fallsThat is what causes the rapids And Saint John is the only place on the bay of fundy that can get rapids like those
Madison Thorne Thanks for the additional information. Hope you enjoyed the video
Mike's Road Trip I did it makes me proud to know that someone enjoys the province I call home
@@madisonthorne4181 That's so cool! Thank you.
hey mike . would that be possible if you extend your videos from 10 minutes to 30 minutes . because i can't let of my eyes for 1 minutes it was eye catching . awesome scenes and you bring the best of the rest if possible do extend so that guys like us enjoy the provinces and last not the least your explanation mind boggling . keep rocking mate .
Ha, thanks Nanda...appreciate the kudos. Cheers!
Halifax claims it's farmer's market is the oldest continuously running market in North America- it started in 1750.
St john is Canada oldest city
I'm going on vacation to New Brunswick next saturday ! 2 day drive from london ontario.
Fantastic. Hope you have a great time!
@@RoadTripTravel Thanks for the info your video is very helpful for my planning our trip! My wife and I are going on our 40th year anniversary! Kudos my friend!
@@DaveonTap My pleasure. That sounds wonderful! Happy anniversary! All the best, Mike
@@DaveonTap so how was ur trip mate?
@@arshdeepsingh3692 Best ever friend! Toured most of the province from st. john to Moncton walked the bay of Fundy then on to Grand Manan island for a couple days.WE love to drive. Stopped in so many towns. The people are great!
very interesting we have a 2.5 foot tide here in south east florida

Nice video i am selecting new Brunswick for migration program
yacine henouz Thank you so much! Ah, very cool!
Great video. Please make another one for Moncton, NB :)
Thank you so much! That's a good idea, I might just have enough footage to do one on Moncton. Thanks for the suggestion, and, for watching. Cheers, Mike
Thank YOU, Mike
I’m more of a fan of the quieter places
I enjoy them too. Thanks for watching! Cheers, Mike
i think you should add one important information that is the approximate cost of the journey. it is really amazing... but need to know about the cost for a week
Thank you for your suggestion. It's a bit difficult to talk ab out costs because there are so many factors, i.e. type of car you rent, level of hotels you wish to stay at, casual or fine dining, etc. See what I mean? You can travel anywhere in the world on the cheap, or in luxury. I appreciate you watching and taking the time to post your suggestion, hope you enjoyed the video and will subscribe for more road trip travel videos. Cheers, Mike
Mike, I think you left the link out of the description. But, loved this one. More for us to add to our trip in the fall.
Hey Arnie...I was just finishing up the post and had not published yet, then forgot. Thanks so much for the reminder. What did ya think of the video? www.mikesroadtrip.com/new-brunswick-road-trip-guide-bay-fundy/
Loved it! Some really lovely shots, and, of course, some really helpful info for anyone looking to visit the area. hmmm.... that could be us, couldn't it?😉
Thank you so much! Appreciate it. ;-)
Hey guys I am from Southern Brunswick! I take this beautiful province for granted! Beautiful scenery! Excellent Seafood! Beautiful place to visit
Okay, this is an amazing travel video! You should be producing for the @TravelChannel
Thank you so much! Really appreciate it!
I have never been to Bay of Fundy, i am in Dartmouth too much!
Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoyed.
@@RoadTripTravel I hope to travel anywhere with my cat this year, I do not have a car, so need to find a way to get where i want to go!
You forgot to show the Saint George Falls & Gorge with Old Pulp Mill
I hope you enjoyed the video despite not featuring those areas.
@@RoadTripTravel Yes I did. May share it to a Page I manage, MyDetroitAddress.com Come on back to the Picture Province anytime!!
Marilyn Bennett I’m glad. Cool. 👌
Nice video. Just wanted to point out that it is called Grand Manan Island; not Grandma man. cheers

I'm heading here soon and was wondering if I am allowed to fly my drone here, do I need special permits?
Marina VL I flew all over, I don’t think you’ll have any issues.
why did quarantine bring me here-
Hey Mike, I'm doing a similar trip this summer, did you stay in Saint John for the whole trip? If not, which towns did you stop overnight on the your way?
Hey Tony...very cool! No, I stayed at various locations. I actually worked my way to the PEI bridge and spent a week exploring there as well. All the details are in this post: www.mikesroadtrip.com/new-brunswick-road-trip-guide-bay-fundy I have a lot of other Maritime Canada videos, hope you will subscribe to my channel.

Nice video, but you started in Digby NS and didn't give us the tour of the Scallop Capitol of the World !
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it. Unfortunately, I was on a really tight schedule. Thank you so much for watching, Mike
Whats with "ok" strange when people say that it seems so strong
You need to clarify? Not sure what you mean.
@@RoadTripTravel People that say "ok" when the moment doesnt call for it is strange..almost like a dominering word youed in that way..." one thing you have to say "ok"...it just seems strange.
🇺🇸
Thanks for watching!
Might be off to pei in august btw do u know the prices of hotels or cottages in pei?
Cool! Oh, it totally depends on the location, accommodation level, etc. No doubt you can find something between $75-$200/night.
I love go there for work who can help me?
Hope you make it there, you will enjoy. Thanks for watching.
Avoid Avoid Avoid.!!! Nothing here but high prices and lots of rough roads.!!! Stay on 4 lane hwy to take you further east and provinces that want you there.. NB does not.!!!
This is an absurd comment. I never found the roads to be an issue to avoid such a beautiful area.
@@RoadTripTravel flollow the fiddlehead or the lighthouse signs.. youll see how absurd
@@RoadTripTravel you obviously didnt TOUR the entire province Mr.Mike..
@@Nowhere788 Of course not, it's a massive province. I toured what is featured in this video...along the the Bay of Fundy, hence the title. ;-)
Good place to get Lyme disease.
So...you liked the video then?
@@RoadTripTravel -- Oh yeah! My mother, grandmother, and grandfather were born in St John. So beautiful, but the danger is still there as it is in so many other beautiful places. That whole eastern seaboard is dangerous, again as it is in so many beautiful places that it is not realized. My grandmother died younger than I am now. My grandfather died in his early 50s. My mother did a little better, but only 5 years better than her mother. None ever had any treatment for Lyme, but when I started having problems, I kept looking and looking and did get treatment. No cure, I don't think there is one. I love the beauty, but, alas I have earned a real phobia. My oldest brother has had his brain so messed up by the same thing. My grandmother was labeled with Parkinson, my grandfather had a heart attack in his early 50s (I think that will get me too), my mother just became so weak and died, and my brother is labeled as Alzheimer. POTS, Parkinson, Alzheimer, MS (I almost had that diagnosis), ALS, and so many others, all result from infection. I could go on and on with details, but I am quite sure you have already had TMI. Oh, how I would like to just be able to enjoy the beauty as I did years ago not knowing any better. But I can just drive by, so there is that way to still enjoy the beauty.
Sorry if I bored you to death.
@@wkjeom Wow, that's a crazy story.
@@RoadTripTravel -- Yes, I know. Bothers me most when I see the young ones lose their productive lives and become so disabled. It's the woods and grassey areas that are the worst.
LOL..St. Martins is where my parents live! So many kind locals! I am surprised I did not hear about your car in the rocks adventure! Love my home away from home in NB. You hit all my favourite places that I go to every summer.
