Le cap Split est un cap située sur la côte sud de la baie de Fundy dans la province de la Nouvelle-Écosse. Il est situé dans le comté de Kings et il est l’extrémité occientale de la chaîne du mont Nord (en), qui sont composées principalement de tholéiite[1]. Le cap sépare la baie de Fundy du bassin des Mines.
