In May, we camped at Fundy National Park and did day paddles with Fresh
Air Adventure in Alma.

We particularly liked the paddle going south (to Point Wolfe).  If you
are game, they will take you climbing up to a waterfall, inaccessible
from the land.

The Bay is sure to have warmed up (from the 41 degrees Fahrenheit in
May), possibly all the way to 45.  I would suggest at least a neoprene
short john, even though the locals seem to think that even 41 is pretty
warm and requires no protection (!!!).

I would not recommend doing it alone, unless you are very experienced.
It is easy to become marooned between a cliff and suddenly rough seas,
with your little lunch beach disappearing rapidly as the tide comes in.
