Provinces: New Brunswick/Nova Scotia
Measuring up to 80km (50mi) wide at its mouth, the Bay of Fundy is a delta-shaped bay in the Atlantic Ocean, almost 300km (190mi) deep and penetrating the North American mainland between the Canadian provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.
The Bay of Fundy is neither the largest nor the deepest in the world, but its maximum tidal flow between low and high of 19m (10 fathoms) in the extreme north of the bay at Moncton and Truro is not exceeded anywhere else. Its average tidal flow is about 9m (30ft), but during the spring tides 13m (43ft) can easily be exceeded. Ebb and flow, brought about by the gravitational pull of the sun and the moon, occur when waves in the ocean are stationary
