Cape Enrage

per person

Cape Enrage is an island located in Albert County, New Brunswick, roughly half way along the coastline between the villages of Riverside-Albert and Alma at the eastern entrance to Fundy National Park.

The island itself is surrounded by jagged sea cliffs that are often more than 50 metres high, and is separated from the mainland by a narrow tidal creek.

Cape Enrage offers one of the most spectacular views of this natural phenomenon from its towering cliffs. The lighthouse of Cape Enrage was established in 1838 and the light and foghorn are still operational.

Cape Enrage derives its name from the large reef that extends south into Chignecto Bay, which causes the water off the point to become extremely violent, particularly at half tide when the reef is partially exposed and the water is moving quickly.

Finally, the Bay of Fundy is one of the Marine Wonders of the World with tides rising as much as 16.3m (53 vertical feet) over a 12-hour period twice each day !
