Where the Land Meets the Sea: The Coastal Geography and Geology of Nova Scotia and Newfoundland

May 7, 2019

Atlantic Canada has a unique geological history that rivals anywhere else on the continent and has been laid bare for all to see along our rugged and meandering coastline. The sea kayak is an ideal means to explore our isles and inlets, headlands and harbours, and to reach many of their hidden gems. Contrasts abound: from the 100 Wild Islands along our Eastern Shore to the Highlands of Cape Breton which originated in an early Africa and Europe; to the Bay of Fundy, once the ancient rift valley of a supercontinent; and to the pillow lava cliffs of Newfoundland, remnants of ancient volcanic islands.

Join Dr. Scott Cunningham of Coastal Adventures, and the author of Sea Kayaking in Nova Scotia, as he describes the special coastal areas he has discovered over years of exploring our marine wilderness on foot and in kayak.
