Just A Quote

I found this quote and it just sounded like it was describing the beaches in Baxter's Harbour :

I have always loved the beach. The smell of the salty water, the wind in my face, the gentle roar of the waves all combine to create a sense of peace and calm.” .

N.S. Power installs test tidal power turbine

A turbine that will test the potential of tidal power has been successfully installed in the Bay of Fundy.
The turbine began turning in the Minas Passage, about 10 kilometres west of Parrsboro on Thursday afternoon.
The 400-tonne device was installed on the seabed by Nova Scotia Power and its partner OpenHydro.
The Nova Scotia government has contributed $9 million to the tidal power project.
The province has set a target of producing 25 per cent of its electricity from renewable resources by 2015.
Research suggests that tidal power in the Minas Passage could create up to 300 megawatts, enough to power 100,000 homes.
