Just west of Saint John we stopped at an information center and were greeted by Larry who shared area information with us. You can’t see the Bay of Fundy sites without knowing the tide schedule. We were just in time to get to the campsite set up and see the reversing falls at high tide. The St John river meets the bay of Fundy at Saint John. When the tide comes in the water actually moves upstream with the force of the tide. As we learned from Larry, the tide actually starts in the Indian Ocean and moves up to the Bay of Fundy, forcing water to back up the Saint John river 80 KM! We drove to the overlook and marveled at what we saw.
