agreed. The province should be marketing the dickens out of the entire Fundy coastal experience. From tip to tip, the Fundy coast has it all:
- Campobello Island and theRoosevelt International Park.
- Grand Manan and whale watching and birdwatching.
- St. Andrews by-the-Sea (multiple attractions including the Algonquin Hotel)
- Saint Stephen (Chocolate Museum and, soon-to-be oldest basketball court museum).
- Saint John (multiple attractions)
- Saint Martin's (sea caves, covered bridges)
- Fundy Trail
- Fundy National Park
- Alma (park service town, multiple restaurants and hotels)
- Cape Enrage
- Hopewelll Rocks
- Moncton (multiple attractions)
- Memramcook (orchards, vineyards)
- Sackville (waterfowl park, Coleville collection at the university art gallery)
- Fort Beausejour/Fort Cumberland National Historic Park (where two actual battles were fought. There were no battles fought at the Halifax Citadel).
All in the space of 300 km, with two cities of well over 100,000 people each to act as service centres. There is no other place like it in Atlantic Canada. Shit, let me be the manager of the marketing and promotions section of the Department of Tourism! I'd do a good job!
