Description

This adventure starts on an old road that passes through a field. Just past a side road on the left that leads to an old cemetery, the road goes into the woods and turns into more of a trail. The trail continues out onto the narrow point and ends at a rounded rocky outcrop. This is where you will get the best views of Bay of Fundy. Just before the point you will find a trail on the right that takes you out to a lookout looking back at the Caves Restaurant. A trail on the left takes you out to a lookout that provides views into the long narrow cove with a beach at the end.

Lookout above St. Martins Sea Caves

The conglomerate rock in this area is eroded by the extreme Fundy tides to form some amazing cliffs and sea caves. If it's low tide go back to the restaurant and make your way out the beach to the sea caves. If you have the time and are really adventurous you can book a kayak tour with Bay of Fundy Adventures. They can take you out beyond the cove for some even more amazing cliffs. They can be found back near the covered bridge in St. Martins.

Directions

Drive through St. Martins and continue through the covered bridge and past the Caves Restaurant. Climb the steep hill past the restaurant and at the top look for a gravel road on the right. Turn into this road and park at a wide spot just around the first turn. Park here and continue on foot. The old road turns into more of a trail near the point.
