Tidal Bore Park

Moncton riverside viewpoint for watching the Bay of Fundy tidal bore arrive

Tidal Bore Park is Moncton’s straightforward viewing spot for one of the Bay of Fundy’s stranger daily performances: the tidal bore pushing up the Petitcodiac River. The wave can be modest or impressive depending on tide and conditions, but the idea of a river visibly reversing itself is still worth seeing.

Check the tide time before you go; arriving randomly is the surest way to be underwhelmed. The park is simple, central, and best treated as a timed stop on a riverfront walk rather than a full attraction.
