Kayaking at the hopewell Rocks
Guided Tours
 Kayaking the Hopewell Rocks is a unique adventure and experience,
particularly during the shorebird migration. Guided kayaking tours are
offered daily at high tide by Baymount
Outdoor Adventures, an independent operator. Baymount has an
information kiosk near the parking area on the lower site. (see site
map)
Tours should be reserved in advance as they fill up quickly during
the peak summer season.
Contact Baymount
Outdoor Adventures for more information (506-734-2660 or
1-877-601-2660) or visit their website.
Self-Guided Tours
If you wish to launch your own kayak and paddle without the benefit
of an experienced guide, you must sign a waiver at the visitor
information desk. You will also require permission to drive your
vehicle to the lower site where you can off-load your kayak.
The best opportunity for kayaking occurs from 2 hours before high
tide until 2 hours after, as water levels are high enough for easy
beach access. Outside this time frame, water levels retreat quickly,
exposing the sensitive ecozone of the Fundy mud flats.
We strongly advise that you use common sense and caution, as the
tides are unpredictable and currents strong. Please check weather and
sea conditions prior to your launch. |
