If the Bay of Fundy is on your list, then you should ensure that you stop at the Hopewell Rocks in New Brunswick, preferably at low tide. You'll have to head south and west from Moncton to visit them, as opposed to taking the main road between Moncton and Saint John. That would allow you to visit Fundy National Park too. If at all possible try and visit at low tide, walk on the seabed floor around the Hopewell Rocks and then return later at high tide and see the same rocks you walked past, now as small islands that you could Kayak past.

In Saint John you should visit the Reversing Falls, another Bay of Fundy event.

In Halifax, my hometown, you should visit the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic and be sure to visit the Titanic artefacts’, including the an original Titanic deck chair, that was collected from the flotsam, and spend some time in the Halifax Explosion gallery too. If the Titanic, floats your boat, there are several Titanic grave sites in Halifax too. If you fancy a high end lobster dinner, visit the Five Fisherman Restaurant and ask about the history of the building and the Titanic. The Citadel is an interesting historical visit too.

Obviously no visit to Halifax would be complete without a trip to Peggy's Cove. Just past Peggy's Cove to the West is a very poignant monument to the memory of the Swiss Air flight that crashed just off the shores of Peggy's Cove.

On the Nova Scotia shore of the Bay of Fundy at the entrance to the Annapolis Valley you have Grand Pre National Historic Site and further up the valley at Annapolis Royal you have both Acadian French and British historic sites worthy of a visit.

PM me when you have dates and if I’m home, I’ll buy you a drink and welcome you in person.
