Minas Basin

Eastern inlet of the Bay of Fundy, into central Nova Scotia. Up to 25 mi (40 km) wide and more than 50 mi (80 km) long, it has some of the highest tides in the world; fluctuations exceeding 50 ft (15 m) have been recorded. Samuel de Champlain named it “Le Bassin des Mines” in 1604 after the mineral deposits found along its shores.
