Need something to TIDE you over until you can visit us again in May? This documentary from CBC might just teach you something new about the highest tides in the world!

Please note: the Fundy Tidal Interpretive Centre's observation deck is closed until further notice. The Municipality is completing a maintenance review over the next few weeks and has blocked off access to the observation deck.

We're so proud to have been named a Treasured Wetlands of Nova Scotia in 2020. Visitors from across the Atlantic Bubble came and experienced this beautiful site this past summer, and we hope this video will give you a taste of what you'll see when you come visit us in summer of 2021!

Best Wishes for the Holiday Season from the staff of the Fundy Tidal Interpretive Centre!
