Fundy National Park

Two night stay at the Chignecto North Campground which is above the Headquarters campground. We were able to get a site with water and electricity. There are four areas, each having several loops which made finding our way a little confusing. Each area had a washroom building with shower and laundry facilities. Each area also had a community room/shelter with a camper sink inside and outside. Only one community room/shelter had internet access.

Sites were surrounded by trees so there was some privacy, although we could see the campers on either side.

Fundy NP is right alongside the Bay of Fundy and you can see the Bay from the Headquarters campground. The little town of Alma, NB is just outside the south entrance to the Park and is a short walk away. The town has restaurants, a grocery store, a laundromat and post office. The Hopewell Rocks - admission fee but worth the visit - is about an hour's drive east. The Bay of Fundy has the highest tides in the world - high tide can be over 40 feet. Your visit to the Hopewell Rocks should be timed for low tide so you can walk on the ocean floor around the rocks which are hidden when tide is high.
 
Hopewell is pretty awesome. Go out and walk around the tall sea stacks at low tide, then come back around high tide and they look like little islands. There is some great hiking overlooking the bay, though a lot of the routes are fairly long.

It's also worth stopping at Moncton to see the tidal bore change the flow of the river (Moncton River?) to upstream. It sends a wave upstream that is fascinating to see (there are similar, though less dramatic, tidal bores in Maine).
