VACATION AT THE SITE OF THE WORLD'S HIGHEST RECORDED TIDES
Shangri-La Cottages is located at Burntcoat Head and is Nova Scotia’s only accommodation at the site of the highest recorded tides. From the comfort of your cottage, you can watch the ebb and flow of the tides in the Bay of Fundy.
At Burntcoat Head, we hold the record of a 53.5 foot tidal change from low to high…that’s taller than a 5-story building! The tides in the Bay of Fundy are semi-diurnal, so there are two high tides and two low tides every day. Approximately every 6 hours and 13 minutes, you can witness this dramatic change.
Enjoy the high tide phenomenon or take a walk on the ocean floor at low tide – its all at the doorstep of your cottage. It will fill you with a sense of peace that you won’t soon forget!
