      If you are willing to climb down a fairly long set of stairs, you can walk on the bottom of the Bay of Fundy at low tide. It's amazing to look up and see how high the water will be at high tide! The bottom can be slippery in places, but it's worth the trip if you're sure-footed.We visited in October and found that the visitor's center there was closed. It would have been nice to visit the center, but it was a good site even with the center closed. If you visit after the first weekend in October, you may want to see what's open and what's closed.

      Spectacular place to experience the tides. We were there at low tide, and walked out over the rocks, sand and mud flats to the water. Great cliffs, which disappear at high tide.

      Friday afternoon we had the chance to do a guided tour of the ocean floor at Burncoat Head. Maureen was a fantastic guide, very personal and knowledgeable. Also the price was only $10.00 each. If you have a couple of hours-you really should go!

      On our mini-vacation to Halifax, we wanted to get a flavor of the Bay of Fundy area and discovered this little park with amazing and colorful views. We arrived at close to low tide, which is definitely a good time to come. I wish we had come at true low tide to have been able to walk out, but this spot was really beautiful with the red clay cliffs. The lighthouse was a cute perk! I recommend having GPS to find this park. The drive is scenic and roads are good. Definitely needed more time to get the full experience, but it was very enjoyable none the less. The helpful gal managing the lighthouse and info center was pleasant and informative. We even picked up a more detailed map of the area.

      Stopped here on my round-about way back to Halifax from Peggy's Cove. A lovely drive, best enjoyed with 2 two people so you don't end up weaving all over the road! I arrived at low tide and had the opportunity to walk all the way out across the "naked" ocean floor to wear the tide was starting to come back in. Watched a couple of tidal pools left behind and was amused by all the little hermit craps scurrying about in the water. Collected a few shells, but be mindful that the ones you pick up may already have an occupant!!!I wore flip flops so I wouldn't ruin my running shoes, based on other reviews warning of the slick clay/mud.....I actually didn't find it bad at all, once you get past the initial mouth of the waterway. Pay attention and try to walk on only the rocks.Great photo ops, and I was lucky to have been there on a gorgeous sunny day. Truly amazing how much water comes and goes in a 5-7 hour time frame. Some picnic table and chairs to relax in, if you have the time and desire to hang around.

      On a day trip along the Bay of Fundy, this was an interesting stop. Not only for the lighthouse, but the path down to the high tide area. The history of the area was well documented on display inside the lighthouse. We enjoyed the opportunity to climb to the top.

      I loved, loved, loved walking around on the ocean floor. Beware that it is muddy, and can be slippery if you hit the clay which is everywhere, aim for the rocks and gravel - last resort is the green seaweed. Get there as close to low tide as possible, so you have time to explore the caves and cliffs without worrying about the incoming tide. To me, this was far more fun and interesting than the tidal bore!!

      This is a great place for a quiet walk. There are picnic tables on a beautiful lawn before you walk down to the sea floor. A few adirondack chairs to relax and view the sea near the lighthouse. Not very crowded at all. We were there late in the day at low tide. Fantastic photos. Bring good shoes, be cautious of the muddy spots. Enjoy the hermit crabs, beautiful green moss against the red cliffs and the vast views.

      What an amazing experience. So much has been marketed about the New Brunswick side of The Bay of Fundy, but Burncoat Head Park, roughly 1 hr from Halifax, is the place to walk out on the sea floor. We found out that the highest tides are 47 feet high, whereas the NB side only reaches 29 ft. At Burncoat Head, with stairs going right down the cliffs, you have easy access to the sea floor, breathtaking views, wonderful sea life in little ponds. And the best part, there were maybe 50-100 people there, so no lines or waiting, we were free to roam. We brought a picnic lunch with us as there arent any restaurants around, it was a great way to enjoy the beautiful weather and the experience of low tide.
