TRAVEL TIP
If you’re spending time in Wolfville, be sure to make the short drive to Hall’s Harbour - located on the shores of the Bay of Fundy. Work up an appetite exploring this tiny fishing village, then select your own lobster to enjoy while watching the tides. At low tide, the fishing boats sit on the harbour bottom until the tide rises more than 40 ft!
