The bay is a picturesque body of water with impressive rock formations, marine diversity and fossil deposits. But what makes it unique are its remarkably high tides: More than 100 billion tons of water rush in and out every day. The tides measure 53 feet, the highest in the world, according to Terri McCulloch, executive director of the Bay of Fundy Tourism Partnership.

( Department of Tourism & Parks, New Brunswick, Canada )

Kayakers paddle through New Brunswick's Hopewell Rocks, a group of rock formations along the coast of the Bay of Fundy carved by tidal erosion. The site is open from mid-May to mid-October.
