About Saint John NB
Saint John rests along the rugged northern shores of the Bay of Fundy in New Brunswick, Canada, proudly earning its widespread nickname as the Fundy City. As Canada's fourth busiest cruise port and a thriving maritime hub since welcoming its first modern cruise ships in 1988, the destination invites international travelers into a world of dramatic tides and deep historical roots. Established by royal charter in May 1785 following the arrival of American Loyalists, Saint John holds the prestigious distinction of being the oldest incorporated city in British North America, blending centuries of colonial heritage with a resilient local spirit.
The city's distinct architectural personality was dramatically shaped by a massive fire in June 1877 that destroyed nearly half of the urban core. In response, residents rebuilt using durable brick and stone rather than wood, creating a unified Victorian streetscape across the downtown district that survives intact today. Visitors stepping ashore find a compact, highly walkable urban center featuring vibrant cultural landmarks such as the Saint John City Market, North America's oldest continuing farmers market, whose sweeping wooden rafters resemble an inverted ship hull.
Beyond the historic downtown, the surrounding region showcases extraordinary natural wonders defined by the Bay of Fundy, home to the highest tides in the world. This incredible tidal force creates the famous Reversing Rapids, where surging ocean waters compel the Saint John River to reverse direction and flow upstream twice daily. Travelers can also explore Rockwood Park, one of Canada's largest urban green spaces, or tour the historic Carleton Martello Tower, a strategic fortification dating back to the War of 1812 that provides sweeping panoramic vistas over the bustling harbor.
