Saint John Trip Overview
Saint John River Relics (Coastal Kayaking Adventure)
Enjoy a guided kayaking adventure along the shores of the historic Saint John River and experience the “Rocks of Ages” from Dominion Park Beach, Saint John NB. The shore line echo’s with ghosts of “River Relics”. Paddle an Ice age river where 15,000 years ago the last glacier forced the river to find a new route over the rock ridges at Reversing Falls Rapids to create this gorge. Experience the history of a Lime stone quarry with over 850 million year old marble and the first documented Precambrian fossil (Stromatolites) described in scientific literature. Photo opportunities abound as you pause to view a lighthouse, a Historic Lime Quarry, local wildlife including an active bald eagles nest. Located only 15 minute drive from uptown Saint John!
