Grand Manan is an island between the Gulf of Maine and the Bay of Fundy, not far off the coast of New Brunswick and Maine. Geologists who are lucky enough to visit Grand Manan know the rocks and structures of the island to be spectacular but challenging, even somewhat bewildering. Solving their mysteries is our goal, and that is partly what makes Grand Manan so interesting. Along with excellent outcrops (especially along the shoreline), its unspoiled scenery and peaceful atmosphere are not surpassed anywhere along the eastern coast of North America. It is a special place.
This web page about the geology of Grand Manan is intended for students, teachers, geologists, and others who appreciate this part of our earth. Please feel free to contact me (greg"at"earth2geologists.net) about your ideas, questions, corrections, comments, and additions.
