The Rocks Provincial Park, Provincial park in Albert County, Canada
Colossal rock formations extend from the ocean floor, reaching heights of 40 feet along the Bay of Fundy shoreline at Hopewell Cape.
The park, established in 1958, contains rock formations shaped over 300 million years through deposits from ancient streams of the Caledonia Mountains.
Mi'kmaq people narrate that the rock formations originated when whales transformed escaping individuals into stone pillars near the shore.
Visitors can explore the formations from cliff-top viewing platforms or walk on the ocean floor during low tide periods.
The Bay of Fundy tides expose and submerge the base of these rock pillars twice daily, with water levels changing up to 14 meters.
