Top Saint John Water Tours

Capture Canada’s rugged coastline on camera on this 5-hour Fundy Coast to Fundy Shore photography tour. Explore the fishing village of St John in New Brunswick with your guide. Frame beautiful shots of the lighthouse and twin bridges as the ocean swirls in the background. Visit sandstone sea caves carved out by the powerful waves. Stroll along the rocky beach and gain insight into this small community’s rich heritage. Admire the Reversing Falls Rapids and stop at the market, where the locals have been buying their fresh produce since 1876.

Make the most of your time ashore in New Brunswick on this half-day shore excursion. Make your own way to the Saint John cruise pier, meet your guide, and set off. You’ll see the Bay of Fundy’s famous high tides and rock formations (as well as its reversing falls), will glimpse picturesque sea caves, and will even have the chance to stop for seafood chowder and other refreshments.

Saint John, New Brunswick, has a history of civilization going back thousands of years, but its natural landscape goes even deeper into history. 15,000 years ago, glaciers once covered the area. Now, you’ll have the chance to paddle through what remains: the Saint Johns River. Join this kayak excursion launching from Dominion Park Beach and explore the natural history of this huge river system. Snacks, water, and all equipment are included, just bring your paddling skills.

Meet at beautiful Dominion Park where your guides will lead the group through gearing up, introductions, and a safety overview. We'll launch into the beautiful South Bay region of the Saint John River (traditionally referred to as the Wolastoq). The on water portions of the tour follow the highlights of our River Relics experience, giving you an overview of the "recent" history of Southeast New Brunswick. Photo opportunities abound, with stops to view pre-Cambrian fossils, a bald eagles nest, a 17th century lime quarry, and a 19th century lighthouse, not to mention the stunning scenery of the river at sunset. We'll stop a a beach mid tour, where we'll gather around a bon-fire for some food, conversation, and storytelling. Sip locally foraged tea while baking your own traditional Bannock. Enjoy a locally sourced smoked sturgeon sampler and light seasonal appetizer platter. The return paddle, with any luck, will be on calm waters by the light of the moon and stars. Magical!
