SIGHTSEEING
Gravity Eternity
Bicentennial Park, Dieppe

Appearing as an abstract monument, this sculpture is in reality a concrete symbol of the environment. It is composed of a multitude of steel beams symbolizing the maxim "In unity-strength." This unity is characterized by a single point, which is the core of the sculpture from which power and the energy of life flows.

Moncton 100 Monument
Bore Park on Main St.
The Moncton 100 Monument was crafted by internationally known artist Claude Roussel. Unveiled on December 30, 1990, as part of the City of Moncton's 100th Anniversary celebrations, the Monument stands at the foot of Bore Park and depicts Moncton's first mayor, Joseph Salter. It is an appropriate location since the Salter Shipyards existed only a stone's throw away and Salter himself once sailed the Petitcodiac River.

Tidal Bore
Visit a local Tourist Information Centre for more information.
Petitcodiak River A scenic phenomenon caused by the surging Bay of Fundy tides, the highest in the world, the Bore occurs twice daily. The higher waters in the Bay cause the water in the placid Petitcodiac River to roll back upstream in one wave, which can range in height from 3 to 60 cm. Just as spectacular is the rapid and dramatic change in the river itself. At low tide the muddy river bottom is often visible, but within an hour of the arrival of the Bore, the water level rises some 7.5 metres (25') to fill the river to its banks. The Tidal Bore can be observed from many places around Greater Moncton, whether it be from Dieppe, Moncton or Riverview,
