To be at the Beach
I have spent a lot of time at the beach in my life. Oh to wake up at the shore with waves lapping up against the banks. Looking out to see the fishing boats going out to check there traps, lay there nets or trawl for fish. Your mouth might water at the thought of fresh lobster but you have the ocean at your finger tips. One thing nice about being at your favorite beach is not having to worry about when the tide will be in so you can go for a swim or just enjoy the water.
I think that every piece of shore line in Nova Scotia is a beautiful beach. Beauty is what you behold, whether it be mud, rocks, gravel or sand there is a wonderfulness there for some one, some animal or bird. Truro is as close as you can get to all beaches. From Cape Breton's awesome beaches to all the amazing pieces of shore line all around the province and all the counties. Just about ever county touches the beach with there shore line bringing the awe inspiring sea to to their door step.
Anyhow it was not an easy thing to find accurate tidal information. I will not even say what I found it under even though my competitors have already used the links that I searched for without end. I hope that you will find these links helpful whether you are going clamming, beach combing, walking and want a low tide or would like the tide to be in high for water sports, swimming or plain old fun.
