burnt coat lighthouse印象

The Burnt Coat Lighthouse lies within the provincial park. Admission to the lighthouse museum is by donation and the exhibits of the lighthouse materials and fossil deposits are very interesting. The former lighthouse was lost to erosion in 1913. See the island that the lighthouse used to stand on and visit at low tide to experience the Bay of Fundy tide variation; walk the red shores and enjoy the experience!!

Awesome to walk on the ocean floor and see the the cliffs above. Took lots of pictures and you have to expect to get muddy!

Quiet,small park with a lighthouse and small museum.Areas to just sit and view the water ,one could see the tide at different heights. Nice place to picnic.

A great place to view the world's highest tides and some of the history of the Bay of Fundy. It is a beautiful drive along the coast to the lighthouse if the tide is in or out. You should try to see both.

One can consider this visit as a two in one attraction. Firstly the lighthouse, a reconstruction of the original that was on the small island just off the coastline. I really hope that money is made available to bring this together. There is certainly enough space to put some exhibits together to make this a very good attraction. Currently there are some interesting snippets and all of them good.One can climb to the top by a set of stairs, to give a lovely view at the top. No fresnel lens in the tower but a lovely view.The building is set in lovely grounds which are well kept. There are a few picnic tables in the grounds. Off to the left is a small path that leads down to a set of wooden stairs that will take you down to the beach area. At low tide one can walk to the right and explore the beach, overshadowed by the steep red cliff. Caution is necessary with respect to the the time of the tide, but of course this is reason for the visit in the first place!The weather was beautiful, the location great and the people at the lighthouse very friendly.Very enjoyable

We visited out of season it seems, 25 Sept. Visitor info at Wolfville had not told us the lighthouse would be closed, but we enjoyed going down to the beach in the rain at low tide. Well maintained steps and a seat at the top with geat view. A pity the washrooms were so smelly.

Although the lighthouse was closed for the season when we visited, the small park surrounding it is a good place for a picnic lunch and a walk on the shore to watch the tidal bore come in. The shoreline and rocks are impressive and offer a great photo opportunity.

This place is what I like to call ''a great Sunday spot'' to go to and take in all that nature has to offer. The water, the cliffs, and the shoreline, are all beauts. Be sure to bring your camera, you can't take a bad picture here. The cliffs are stunning.

The day we saw this was terrible weather which did affect the whole experience. We did appreciate the views across the water.

Spectacular site for experiencing the volume and rapidity of the Bay of Fundy tides. One moment you're standing on a rocky promontory...a few moments later it's under water. It's a bit out of the way driving-wise, but worth it, and once you arrive it's just a short walk down a path and some steps to the shoreline, where there are rocks you can sit on (until they go under water). Be sure to consult the tide charts for the date you visit. If you want to experience walking across the dry sea-bed, come at low tide; if you want to watch the basin fill up, aim at the hour leading up to high tide. The lighthouse doesn't reward the climb to the top with dramatic views, so you can skip that. But do go inside and read up on tides in the area.
