Chignecto Bay is a large, coastal arm of the Bay of Fundy, separating central Nova Scotia from southeastern New Brunswick. It is characterized by the world's highest tides, with a significant tidal range that creates powerful and complex currents. The coastline is rugged, featuring steep bedrock cliffs up to 200 feet high, basalt sea stacks, caves, and mixed forests. A notable geological feature is the Cobuid fault line. Primary launch and take-out points are on the Nova Scotia side, including Spicer's Cove and Apple River Bay, where an old bus converted to a shelter is noted. On the New Brunswick side, the Alma area and Cape Enrage are indicated as locations with activity. Paddling here requires serious preparation for variable and often severe conditions. The Bay of Fundy can generate rough seas, strong winds, and dense fog even on calm days. The extreme tides dictate that all trip planning must revolve around tidal currents; it is best to plan launches and arrivals to align with the dominant current flow. A major attraction for kayakers is the group of basalt sea stacks known as The Three Sisters, located near Cape Chignecto Provincial Park. At high tide, paddlers can navigate around them, and at low tide, they can be explored on foot. Overnight camping within Cape Chignecto Provincial Park requires registration, which can be done by phone. The water is deep off prominent capes like Cape Enrage, which itself is a significant navigational hazard extending a third of the way across the bay with a submerged rocky spur. The summer season is referenced for paddling, but conditions remain challenging. The area is also noted for its historical significance regarding North Atlantic right whales.
