The town is situated on the Bay of Funday which experiences some of the highest tides in the world - known to rise to over 28 feet. There is a rich diversity of sea life and many coves and islands to explore. It's also a very popular area with both painters and photographers with its covered bridges and lighthouses.

For the sightseer there are:

  • the Kingsbrae Horticultural Gardens - in full bloom every spring,

  • the St. Andrews Blockhouse (the old gaol).
  • The Fairmount Algonquin hotel is a landmark in the centre of town - built and once owned by the Canadian Pacific Railway.
