FORCE: Fundy Ocean Research Center for Energy

A really great place to learn about the tidal power research being done in the Bay of Fundy, and it doesn't hurt that the views are stunning from where FORCE is based. Great exhibits inside!

Had a great time. I learned a lot, but to my surprise, there were kids activities (coloring, blocks, books, outside soccer balls) so I got to actually read most of the information and bonus, my kids loved it! We even stayed and played soccer out front and enjoyed the fantastic view. The staff lady was great with my kids and very knowledgable. I enjoyed the drive out there- we even saw a porcupine cross the road. Great views! On the way, drive down Lighthouse Rd.

Stunning views, beautiful flowers! The staff were friendly and helpful. The road could use some work but well worth the trip!

It is NOT in downtown Parrsboro as some websites imply. Instead it is about 6 miles southwest of Parrsboro via Whitehall Road (follow the signs for Ottawa House and keep going past it). FORCE is a small museum, with mostly text exhibits. A few small 5" or so tall models. The text exhibits contain numerous unattributed “stock” photos which apparently have nothing to do with the subjects. Nice view.
