The boats seat about 30 to 40 passengers and take you into the Bay of Fundy, where you may be fortunate enough to see whales, dolphins, seals and Atlantic puffins. Please ensure that you pack plenty of drinks, food, sun cream and a jacket, on even the warmest of days. Click here for a movie of Fundy Cruiser leaving Tiverton wharf.
