The Confederation Bridge is a world engineering feat. It connects Prince Edward Island to mainland Nova Scotia over the Northumberland Strait in the southern part of
the Gulf of Saint Lawrence. At 12.9 kilometres or 8 miles long it is
longest bridge in the world over ice-covered waters. It takes
approximately 10 minutes to across. At the highest point, the bridge
reaches 60 metres above sea level, which allows large sea vessels,
including cruise ships, to navigate under the bridge between its piers.
