Two Islands Beach Easter Sunday Walk
When the sun finally made an appearance after three solid days of rain it was time to finally head to the beach! I arrived just as the tide was turning. There was still plenty of time left to explore. Best of all: the beach was mine, not another soul in sight! It was my firstContinue reading “Two Islands Beach Easter Sunday Walk”
The final swirl…
…or, one more “Meeting of the Waters” immersion! Today was the last day for this moon phase to experience the incoming tide. It was also the last opportunity to actually stand on the ocean floor as the waters come together and swirl around our calves. With the next full moon the Bay of Fundy watersContinue reading “The final swirl…”
Can’t Get Enough: Meeting of the Waters, Take Two!
Last night at Ottawa House Story Time I met Becky and her mom who were travelling together from south of the border. While we chatted I mentioned that they are here during the Super Moon and that the tides are very high at the moment. The Meeting of the Waters came up and we quicklyContinue reading “Can’t Get Enough: Meeting of the Waters, Take Two!”
Prep Day!
Every once in a while you get a challenge that is all-consuming! I spent the day getting ready for a special beach treasure hunt tour with a young family from Toronto tomorrow! The Fundy Geological Museum passed my name on three weeks ago suggesting I might be able to take two young girls (7 andContinue reading “Prep Day!”
In the Footsteps of the Dinosaurs at Wasson’s Bluff & Two Islands
Gillespie House B&B guests tore themselves away from these gorgeous grounds to explore the geology along two well-known and popular beaches along the Parrsboro Shore. Four hours well spent looking for rocks, crabs, hermit crabs and watching the tide rise around Eagle Island! We had mist, fog and even some rain which meant the newContinue reading “In the Footsteps of the Dinosaurs at Wasson’s Bluff & Two Islands”
A Special Panorama
Eagle and Gull Islands Revisited
Eagle and Gull Islands are better known as Two Islands along the Parrsboro Shore. I finally found time to revisit this elusive destination. So close and yet the access is somewhat limited. You will meet locals who encourage others to cross the shallow waters anytime. Based on personal experience and the many rescue stories thatContinue reading “Eagle and Gull Islands Revisited”
Rock Hunting Guided Tour
The weather cooperated today! The rain stopped just as we arrived at our starting point. It held off for the entire time we explored the beach. My wonderful clients from Virginia really enjoyed their time on Two Islands Beach as we experienced the tide moving out to expose the ocean floor! When the sun pushedContinue reading “Rock Hunting Guided Tour”
Watching the Waters Meet on a Misty Spring Day
The rain had stopped when we set out for the beach earlier today. But as we arrived at Two Islands Beach Big and Little Brother Isles were shrouded in mist. We had time to explore the barnacle covered exposed ocean floor while the drizzle stopped. The primary reason for our beach excursion was to observeContinue reading “Watching the Waters Meet on a Misty Spring Day”
Reflection…
These shallow waters Reflecting the vast landscape – Summer will return!
Wasson’s Bluff Two Islands Beach
It was lightly snowing in Parrsboro today but I had to scout a beach for a hike scheduled for Wednesday. Risk Assessment and hazard reduction/elimination is first and foremost on a field leader’s mind when planning a group hike. The approach to this beach can be difficult with washed out sections but today it passedContinue reading “Wasson’s Bluff Two Islands Beach”
Just had to do it again!
…walking around Two Islands, that is! A small group got together this morning and crossed over to the Big Island. This time we walked counter-clockwise. I tried to weigh one route against the other and they measure up equally. I was glad I had made the treck just a couple of days ago as IContinue reading “Just had to do it again!”
Circumnavigating Two Islands
Today has been momentous: I joined a hiking friend in a walk around the Two Islands and it was amazing. I have always been fascinated by these basalt giants but after actually crossing the knee-high water at low tide toward Big Brother I have a whole new appreciation for these geological formations. The rocky beachContinue reading “Circumnavigating Two Islands”

As newcomers to the Parrsboro Shore you know that you belong once you have experienced the “Meeting of the Waters” at Two Islands around the full moon. Another new member to the community reached out last week to find out more about hiking and exploring the beaches. I decided to share the ultimate experience withContinue reading “Sharing the Experience!”
