The Petitcodiac River exhibits one of North America's few tidal bores, a regularly occurring wave that travels up the river on the leading edge of the incoming tide. The bore is a result of the extreme tides of the Bay of Fundy. Originally, the bore was very impressive, sometimes between one and two metres (3.2–6.4 ft) in height and extending across the kilometre (.62 mi) width of the Petitcodiac River in the Moncton area. This wave would occur twice a day at the incoming of the high tide, travelling at an average speed of 13 km/h (8 mph) and could produce quite an audible roar.[28] When the causeway was built the water flow was greatly reduced and the bore now rarely exceeds 15–20 cm in height.

It includes both seashore and Acadian coastal forests. The park covers an area of 207 km². Dickson FallsAt low tide, park visitors can explore the ocean bottom which was 9 metres or more below the water's surface at high tide. The Caribou Plain trail and boardwalk provides access to upland forest and bog habitats. The park also includes more than 20 waterfalls. In the 19th century, there were sawmills on the Point Wolfe and Upper Salmon Rivers which produced lumber for nearby Saint John and for export. After the nearby forests had been cut, people began to leave the area. The park was established in 1948 and was New Brunswick's first national park. Park amenities include a golf course, a heated saltwater swimming pool, three campgrounds, and a network of over 100 km of hiking and biking trails. [1] The Dobson Trail and Fundy Footpath extend out of the park to Riverview and St. Martins respectively. A unique red-painted covered bridge is located at Point Wolfe. Good tip?
