Tidal Bore in Maitland Nova Scotia, near Truro

May 18 I rode the motorcycle up to Maitland, Nova Scotia and caught the tidal bore. It starts slowly and then the first wave appears shown in the first picture.

Here is the old bridge before the wave hits. Notice the bank is fairly dry and the water level on the support is quite low. This is around 3 pm.

This is a picture of the tidal bore in full motion. The water has risen many feet and the current is very fast. This was taken around 3:20 pm.

Check out the water level at around 3:30 pm. Quite a spectacular show from the tide. Here is a video link if this type of natural event is of interest to you.
