Cumberland Municipality. Wasson Bluff is a small piece of land that juts out into Minas Basin part of the Bay of Fundy to the south of the town of Parrsboro. It is an easy hike around the bluff to the arch at low tide. The Bay of Fundy has the world's highest tides so it is essential to pay close attention to the tide tables as the tides do move rapidly and there maybe a chance of being cut off by them. 

The area is also notable as the place where evidence of the world's smallest dinosaurs have been found. This was also the site of the largest fossil find in North America dating from the Triassic/Jurassic period.

The arch has a span of 17 ft and a height of 10 ft.
