The Hopewell Rocks and a lot of visitors: tourism is up in New Brunswick this year. I arrived when the tide was coming in, but I could still walk out to the rocks. I took another picture a half hour later when the rocks had become flower pot islands. The tide comes in at just under 8 vertical feet an hour this time of the month as we just had a full moon. Tides are at their highest at new and full moons. This makes it a 42 foot tide. Of course at their lowest it still comes in at 6 vertical feet an hour. Either way they are phenomenal.
