A really great museum for a quick visit. Lots of information thou, you can either spend 10 minutes if you just look at stuff but, you can be there for an hour if you read and learn all the interesting facts about Nova Scotia and his geological richness. You're going to learn not only about the Canadian dinosaurs but, also about some cool and beautiful rocks that you can find in the region (Bay of Fundy) and in Nova Scotia. Our kids were amazed and we were too, really well organized and maintained museum. Now with COVID-19 it is sparkling clean and with some different security measures so, please call ahead or book online to make sure you won't lose your time. It is not their fault, they're just doing the right thing by being cautious about the situation.And for dog owners, they have a small fenced area on a tree shade that you can lock your dog while you're visiting. That's for small dogs only thou. I saw a bigger wooden fence but, not sure if it was part of the museum.

Interesting and fun museum to visit if your in town. It's quite small. Some of the aspects of the tour were not working properly. They have painting activities and other things for kids. Lots of local artifacts and history.

An informative museum that has many exhibits on geology and dinosaurs. A great place to visit on a rainy day or with kids. Despite the whole museum exhibit area being no bigger than three whole gyms, they used the space very well with every corner and available area packed with information and interactive exhibits. There is also a window that you can peek into the lab and see what an actual geologist is doing. Despite it being a Saturday, someone was in there washing the sediments from the rocks. There is also a small gift shop by the entrance. Lots of parking available.

A very small museum that take less than an hour to visit. Informations are very interesting and complete. It's a good museum but I prefer the bigger one. You can take a walk through the shore of the bay.

A lot of rocks and geological stuff. We went on a rainy day so couldn’t explore the outdoor activities. Wish it had more to offer. It is a cool city. I’d love to see more dinosaurs. They had staff there willing to answer any question. The gift shop was cute and small.

A great little museum with a wealth of educational content!The museum has changed over the years and I appreciate the latest update! They have enough appeal for all ages ( a craft activity station for kids and a dinosaur dig sand pit) and dinosaur decor everywhere!There is a location where you can watch fossils being prepared and they have a beach tour as well!You can also go out to their dig site a few times in the summer but the prices are quite steep.Gift-shop has a lot of fun things but I wish they had more personalized items ( such as shirts featuring the local dinosaurs, not generic shirts with the museum name printed on the sleeve)

The museum is small, and in my opinion misses the mark with it's exhibits. Plan on 20 minutes or so, to read everything if you do not have children. I'm sure that they could fit a lot more displays in the area they have. What they do have is confusing. Why does it contain examples of gypsum from Mexico? There is an exhibit claiming to be stone tools that is laughable. At least there a some actual stone tools (arrowheads) further on. If it is a museum about the geology of the Bay of Fundy, why does it talk about gold elsewhere in the province? If it's about Nova Scotia's geology, a rename and a lot more exhibits would help. Actually, more exhibits would help!It might be okay if you have small kids.
