Check tide times
The best views of the Reversing Falls and Saint Martins’ sea caves depend on tide stage—confirm local tide tables before you go.
Wear grippy footwear
Coastal ledges and cobbles get slick from spray and algae—choose footwear with good traction for short shoreline walks.
Bring a refillable bottle
Bottled water may be provided, but carrying a refillable bottle reduces plastic and keeps you hydrated between stops.
Plan for photo stops
Ask your guide for extra time at viewpoints—lighting changes quickly with cloud and tide, and popular spots fill fast.
Waterproof shell
Protects against coastal spray and sudden wind-driven rain common on the Fundy shore.
Sturdy walking shoes
Provides traction on wet rocks and gravel at viewpoints and sea cave access points.
Binoculars or telephoto lens
Helps spot seals, shorebirds and details on distant cliffs and lighthouses.
Layered clothing
Temperatures shift with exposure; layers let you adapt from sunny drives to windy lookouts.
