September 1 is World Beach Day! Although our official name is, "Joggins Fossil Cliffs UNESCO World Heritage Site," the site not only has the beautiful sea cliffs that hold countless Carboniferous fossils - there's also the beach! Almost every rock on the beach at the Joggins Fossil Cliffs holds a fossil - making this beach pretty special!

There's still time to visit our beach this season and receive a guided tour from one of our excellent interpreters! Book your tour now:https://jogginsfossilcliffs.checkfront.com/reserve/

August 26 is International Dog Day so we're taking a moment to celebrate the dogs of the Joggins Fossil Cliffs! Our furry friends bring us much joy and companionship throughout our lives - we hope you'll give your dog an extra treat from us today!

Dogs are welcome on the grounds, beach, and on beach tours - provided they are well behaved and on leash, and service dogs are additionally welcome in the Joggins Fossil Centre.

Just a reminder to watch out for potential rock falls while exploring the Joggins Fossil Cliffs UNESCO World Heritage Site. Erosion is a natural process that occurs every day on the cliffs, and while it could reveal exciting discoveries, it can also be dangerous.

If you'd like to explore the cliffs, but don't know where to start or what to look out for, why not give our guided tours a try? Let one of our expert interpreters guide you (safely) back in time to the Carboniferous along the shores of the Bay of Fundy. For more information, visit https://jogginsfossilclifss.net!
