Saint John
In Saint John, you’ll be captivated by the blend of history and natural wonders. Discover the unique phenomenon of the Reversing Falls, explore the charming streets of the historic Uptown area, or take a scenic drive along the Bay of Fundy. The vibrant culture and friendly locals will make your visit to Saint John truly memorable. Discover the city’s history at the New Brunswick Museum and the Loyalist House, explore the vibrant arts scene at local galleries and studios, or stroll along the Harbour Passage, a scenic waterfront walkway with stunning views.
Looking for a thrilling adventure? Ride into the Reversing Falls Rapids on a high-powered jet! This natural wonder is created by the Bay of Fundy's tides, which can rise more than 28 feet over the course of a day. When the tide is low, the river flows into the bay. As the tide rises, the seawater volume increases so rapidly that it reverses the river's flow, pushing it upstream. This results in a maelstrom of powerful rapids and whirlpools, offering a unique and unforgettable experience. Hoping for something a little less exhilarating? Maybe the Saint John Seafood Hopping tour is for you! This is just what it sounds like; an afternoon, walking through this gorgeous town, sampling local dishes prepared from local ingredients, and learning about the history of Saint John. What more could you ask for?
Speaking of food…Saint John is known for Atlantic salmon, scallops, and dulse (edible seaweed). Not into fish? Try some of the traditional Acadian dishes of Saint John, like Fricot (chicken stew) and Poutine Râpée (boiled potato dumplings), and more! Visit the Saint John City Market, the oldest continuously operating farmers’ market in Canada, for more tasty local delicacies.
