Digby Ahoy! scallops, Nova Scotia

Digby (Nova Scotia) is an unassuming small town in the Annapolis valley, with a harbour fronting into a sheltered bay that leads out to the Bay of Fundy (north shore of NS). Here you can take a ferry across to the province of New Brunswick and a short distance to the US border. That's the place to buy cheaper gas and food/clothes.

Digby, and all along this coast, still has a fishing industry and Digby scallops are world renowned. We've had some and they are delicious.
Mark is looking out towards the fishing boats tied up at the harbour. At high tide the boats almost reach the wharf level. Fundy tides have big variances from 120 - 215 metres at the mouth of the Bay, down to 14 m by the bay head, changing every 6 hours. I'm sure the first historic settlers here in 1783 sipped their tea and watched the water level change, just as we did today.
