Shepody Bay (French: Baie de Chipoudy) is a tidal embayment, an extension of the Bay of Fundy in New Brunswick, Canada, which consists of 77 square kilometres (30 sq mi) of open water and 40 km2 (15 sq mi) of mudflats, with 4 km2 (1.5 sq mi) of saline marsh on the west, and eroding sand and gravel beaches covering an area of approximately 1 km2 (0.39 sq mi) on the eastern shore. The intertidal mudflats "support internationally important numbers of the crustacean Corophium volutator, the principal food source for millions of fall migrating shorebirds".

  • La baie de Chipoudy (en anglais : Shepody Bay) est située au sud-est de la province canadienne du Nouveau-Brunswick. Elle constitue l'estuaire de la rivière Petitcodiac. Elle commence peu après le confluent entre la Petitcodiac et la Memramcook, entre les villages de Hopewell Cape et de Dorchester Cape. Elle se termine environ 14 kilomètres au sud, où une ligne formée par la pointe à Marie (Marys Point), l'île aux Meules et le cap Maringouin la sépare de la baie de Chignectou. (fr)

  • Shepody Bay (French: Baie de Chipoudy) is a tidal embayment, an extension of the Bay of Fundy in New Brunswick, Canada, which consists of 77 square kilometres (30 sq mi) of open water and 40 km2 (15 sq mi) of mudflats, with 4 km2 (1.5 sq mi) of saline marsh on the west, and eroding sand and gravel beaches covering an area of approximately 1 km2 (0.39 sq mi) on the eastern shore. The intertidal mudflats "support internationally important numbers of the crustacean Corophium volutator, the principal food source for millions of fall migrating shorebirds". The surrounding area of 122 km2 (47 sq mi) of coastal wetland was designated a Ramsar wetland of international importance on May 27, 1987, is a globally significant Important Bird Area, and is part of the Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network. It is located about 50 kilometres (31 mi) south of Moncton. The nearest population centre is Riverside-Albert with a population of about 320. The Trans Canada Trail passes across part of Shepody Marsh. Major streams feeding into the bay are the , Petitcodiac River and Memramcook River. These three rivers gave the area its name under Acadian occupation in the seventeenth and eighteenth century, Trois Rivieres. (en)

La baie est dominée à l'ouest par le mont Chipoudy et les collines calédoniennes. Le principal affluent à part la rivière Petitcodiac est la rivière Chipoudy. Sur la rive ouest se trouvent quelques villages et les fameux rochers de Hopewell. La rive est, formée par le cap Maringouin, compte un seul hameau, Johnson's Mills. (fr)
