Scots Bay

Scots Bay is best known within Nova Scotia for its shore on the Minas Basin, the eastern reach of the Bay of Fundy. This small rural community lies beneath the high cliffs of Cape Split, a headland projecting into the basin where it opens toward the wider Bay of Fundy. The area is shaped by Fundy’s exceptional tidal range: broad mudflats emerge at low water before being covered again by the incoming tide. Nearby Cape Split Provincial Park protects the headland and coastal forest, with a walking route leading to cliff-edge lookouts. Farms, woodland and shoreline roads give Scots Bay a distinctly unurban character, while Wolfville and the Annapolis Valley lie across the basin.
