Which Rafting trip is right for me?

A true Nova Scotia Tidal Bore Rafting experience! Join us for a Rafting Tour on the worlds highest tides to experience what the Bay of Fundy has to offer and the wonders of the Shubenacadie River! Our 8 passenger Zodiacs will carry us through some of the largest waves the tide has to offer!

PRE-TOUR

Please arrive at least 1 hour prior to your departure time. Give yourself enough time to get here because the tide waits for no one. When you first arrive on site for your Tidal Bore Rafting adventure, you will check in at the lodge. Each member of your group must sign the waiver (guardians will sign for children under 18 years of age) and then payment will be accepted.About 10 – 15 minutes prior to departure, staff will suit you up with a life jacket and rain gear (if appropriate). Make sure you are wearing shoes with a backing (old sneakers or aqua shoes are great). Once you are geared up, a staff member will greet the tour group and assign drivers.

The Shubie River Runners
Experience

DID YOU KNOW that once every 206 days we experience what we call “spring tides”? And no, it does not refer to the season! During “spring tides”, we see our highest waves on the Shubenacadie River, some of them reaching up to 16 feet. For this phenomenon to occur, the moon’s position must be at its closest to Earth and the moon and the sun must be perfectly aligned so that their gravitational pull reinforces each other.
