Hopewell Cape (Flowerpot Rocks) is an outstanding sight to see. Make sure you check the tide schedule on the park website to maximize your time on the beach around low tide. If you like to take photos you will need around two hours on the beach. It is also nice to return at high tide and see the difference.

Come in the morning, be sure to wear comfortable shoes. It is better to take replacement shoes, a towel, and warm clothes. It's cold in the morning. After the walk you will need to wash off all the dirt from your shoes, you can do this by paying or waiting in line to wash your feet and shoes with garden hose. The water is so cold in July! There is a cafe on site, the food there is delicious.

I missed this 15 years ago on my last visit because I read the low tide wrong. Well worth the trip back to finally walk on the ocean floor! Nature is amazing!

This was a once in a lifetime experience in terms of you only really have to do it once. It was cool to see, especially because it is the highest tide in the world. I thought from pictures, that you might get to walk the area a bit further than we did. It's roped off to a relatively small section. We probably should have taken more of the hikes around the area, but we didn't. Glad we went but I was a little underwhelmed.

This experience cannot be experienced anywhere else in the world! Put it on your bucket list! The tide differential is amazing. The site is well laid out and kept clean. The interpretive centre is modern, very informative and interesting for all ages. The washrooms were very clean. There was plenty of on-site parking close to the entrance. Be sure to check the time of the tides before you go. To get the full experience you need to visit at both high and low tides and you need to plan what you will do for the few hours in between. I suggest it's better to do it all in one day to save the time needed to drive to and from the park. So go see the tide, then come back and spend some time at the centre (there is a restaurant there) and relax while you wait a few hours fir the next tide. By far the best thing about the park is the staff. They are super friendly and helpful. Be sure to talk to some of them, They have lots of information and probably some funny stories too. n.b. We did not go on a tour, we explored the site on our own.

Hopewell Rocks is an absolutely amazing place to experience the tides on the Bay of Fundy. The swing between high and low tide exceeds 40 feet at spring tides, which occur at the time of the full or new moon. Check that all out before planning your trip. The park website includes tide tables. It is essential to plan to see both high and low tide, which occur a little over six hours apart. Park admission is good for two days, so you can see the high tide the first day and low tide the next, or vice versa. We saw high tide one afternoon, and low tide the next morning. It's an experience not to be missed. There are multiple viewpoints, but our favorite is Staircase Cove. It's a half-mile hike from the Interpretive Center, or you can take a shuttle for a nominal fee. At low tide, there is a staircase allowing access to the bay floor.

These rocks are amazing structures, carved into weird and wonderful shapes by the ebb & flow of the tide. Make sure you go at low tide so you can walk on the beach and experience their true beauty and majesty (tides listed at nbparks.ca under the Hopewell Rocks section). There's some nice walks through the woods along the cliffs too (you'll need to do a 2km walk to the rocks unless you take the extra paid shuttle bus). And there's various viewpoints overlooking the end of Fundy Bay, though it's a fairly large muddy bay. The rocks are the main draw here though a lot is made of this being the highest-lowest tidal reach worldwide (typically 11m). Staying here for 6 hours to witness that might be a stretch for most people though you could get great time-lapse movie if you setup a tripod and sat watching it! The place gets exceedingly busy - the size of the car parks gives some indication of its popularity. A number of cafes/restaurants and gift shops abound (of course). Admission isn't cheap, but I'd say worth it - you won't see anything like this elsewhere.

Fantastic place to explore the low tides of the bay of fundy. A big shout out to the restaurant on site. Much more that just a snack bar! We had our medium sized dog with us and the staff went out of their way to make him comfortable with ice water and doggie treats. I was so happy that it was dog friendly so we could visit here.

The low and high tide are amazing to experience. You can pay $40 for a family (2 adults plus kids) and then you can visit 2 days. We did the kayaking and it was amazing!

I went to lunch at high tides with a friend last week and had the tidal bay burger, overall it was a great day and the service was great. Tami did a great job and the food came out very fast overall it was a great experience! My name is: Mike Joshua

This place is a must see. walking along the shore at low tide and every few feet is a whole new view. Loved it. Would definitely recommend this. a bit muddy in places so bring appropriate footwear.

We had NO idea how much there was to see and explore here! We spent all day and thoroughly enjoyed it! The views, the tides, the birds, the interactive exhibit. We loved it! The cafe and gift shop and also very nice.

Beautiful! Such an iconic landmark. Paths and stairs were in great repair. Great access. Easy to understand tide schedules accessible online.

Amazing 28' Tidal Change. The Awesome Power of Nature. To walk on the Ocean Floor the is sometimes under 28' of walk is a humling experience. If someone could harness this Incredile renewable resource the Power would be Incredible

We took this excursion to Hopewell Rocks with our Norwegian Escape cruise. We enjoyed Hopewell Rocks and were glad we went! As drive time was very long (but comfortable bus and great guide) we did not get to spend a long time there. Yet the water was close to rocks when arrived and visibly down before we left. There were several steps down but had viewing areas along the way so could stop if wanted. Unique visit and opportunity so glad we went!
