Can anyone give me info on the Saint John Ferry crossing over to Digby. What is cost, how often does it run, length of trip and can it handle a 35 ft 5th wheel? How much time will it save in driving to Digby?

Driving vs. seeing

Fundy National Park

Moncton Tidal Bore


Saint John City Market

You might want to look at some of those places.

I agree with Little Kopit, you will miss seeing/experiencing lots of things. Another excellent place is Hopewell Rocks. My favorite place on the Bay of Fundy was Blomidon Prov. Park.

Cost for fuel is far less than the ferry. You could drive from Saint John to Digby in one day, but again in doing so, will miss so much.

It's a toss up as to if the ferry will save you time. If you go on to Halifax,
it's approx 4 hrs from Saint John by road. It doesn't save you time, nor
money. The ferry will be able to accomodate your rig....tractor trailers use the service.
