Cobequid Bay
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cobequid Bay is an inlet of the Bay of Fundy and the easternmost part of the Minas Basin, located in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia.
The eastern end of the bay hosts the estuary of the Salmon River, whereas the west end of the bay is less well-defined, typically delineated by Burntcoat Head on the southern shore and Five Islands or Economy Mountain on the northern shore.
The highest tidal range in the world was measured at Burntcoat Head where average tidal ranges measure a 12.4m (41ft) vertical difference in water level between low tide and high tide.
