Whale watching in the Bay of Fundy.
Whale watching tours offer a calmer experience for those wanting to explore the mouth of the bay. Tese waters are a playground for whales. Eight different species congregate here, including the rare North Atlantic right whale, hump- back, finback and Minke whales. Highly spirited history
Te Fortress of Louisbourg is the largest reconstruction
project in North America. Founded in 1713, the original settlement was built by the French and developed into a thriving centre for trade and fishing. Te massive stone walls of the Fortress of Louisbourg National Historic Site have seen their share of battles and marauding over the years. Te Fortress was besieged twice and destroyed in the 1760s, but today tourists can stroll down its dirt streets with French soldiers as cannon blasts shake the ground and harpsichord notes escape from nearby dancing par- lours.
