OVERVIEW

Browse the bayside town of Saint Andrews on your own and with a knowledgeable guide that will describe the defining architecture of this National Historic Site. After an extraordinarily scenic and circuitous drive through the countryside and around the northern edge of Passamaquoddy Bay, you will reach Saint Andrews, which still bears many of the characteristics of an 18th-century British colonial town. While driving through the historical district, be sure to notice the original grid layout of the streets and the abundant classically inspired architecture. You will also pause at the Reversing Falls, a natural phenomenon created when the Bay of Fundy’s mighty waters rise 14 feet higher than the Saint John River, reversing its flow.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Spend free time in the town of Saint Andrews, a National Historic Site.
• Admire the various architectural styles while driving through the historical district.
• Watch the Saint John River flow backwards, if the tidal conditions are right.
