Hopewell Rocks
Hopewell Rocks Review
Hopewell Rocks is home to the famous Giant Flowerpots—rock formations carved by the Bay of Fundy tides. They're topped with vegetation and form tiny islands at high tide, while low tide reveals the entire columns and you can descend to the exposed seabed for closer study. There are also trails, an interactive visitor center, sea-kayaking tours, a café-restaurant, a gift shop, and a children's play area. It's quite a long walk from the visitor center to the rocks, but a shuttle service ($2 each way) is available. Be careful. The tide comes in very quickly, so check tide tables, keep an eye on your watch, and exit the beach with time to spare.
