:''For the British bridgehead during the Falklands War, codenamed Blue Beach, see San Carlos, Falkland Islands.'' Blue Beach is a 2 km stretch of cliff-bordered coastline along the Avon River in the southern bight of Minas Basin, Kings County, Nova Scotia, Canada. It is best known as a globally significant fossil location for Lagerstätte of the Tournaisian period. ==Geographic setting== Blue Beach is informally named. The name relates to the bluish-black colour of the cliffs. It stretches from a small creek to Avonport Station. The tidal range in this part of Minas Basin may be as high as 16 m. The area is sparsely populated. The nearest town is Hantsport, just to the South. Blue Beach is accessible on foot from Avonport Station or from the end of the Blue Beach Road (a private road). The tides make for dangerous conditions, because visitors can find themselves trapped easily and should familiarize themselves with the Hantsport tide table (see external references). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Blue Beach」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
