Cape d'Or

Canada / Nova Scotia / Berwick /
 interesting place  Add category
Lighthouse built on basalt with scenic 150m cliffs.
Interesting to watch the Dory Rips - the meeting of three tidal paths.
Best viewed when full moon when the tides are coming in.
The waves create a sine-like motion as waves from three different directions collide. I've witnessed several 90-degree right angle waves.
