Eastern Canada	New Brunswick is Canada's western-most Atlantic Province. Bounded by balmy ocean waters to the northeast and frigid sea water to the southeast, it offers a wide diversity of seaside personalities.
New Brunswick	The Bay of Fundy funnels the tidal waters into the gap between New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. It is this funneling effect which drives the dramatic tides in the area.
The West Isles	The West Isles of the Bay of Fundy block the flow of the tide waters from entering and exiting Passamaquoddy Bay. This results in very few exits for the water in the bay when the tide is ebbing in vice versa when it is flooding. Very strong currents are created by the channeling of such huge volumes of water through such narrow gaps.
