The highest tides in the world can be found in Canada's Bay of Fundy at Burntcoat Head in Nova Scotia. Fundy's tides are the highest in the world because of an unusual combination of factors: resonance and the shape of the bay. The water in the Bay of Fundy has a natural resonance or rocking motion called seiche.
