Maritime Province Explorer

Canada

Discover the rugged beauty and maritime heritage of Canada’s eastern coastline, where dramatic Atlantic shores, charming fishing villages, and warm Maritime hospitality create an unforgettable journey through some of Canada’s most historically significant and naturally spectacular regions. From Halifax’s bustling waterfront with its connection to Titanic history to Prince Edward Island’s rolling green landscapes that inspired Anne of Green Gables, every destination reveals the deep connection between Maritime peoples and the sea that has shaped their culture for centuries. Experience the poignant history of immigration and tragedy at Halifax’s Maritime Museum of the Atlantic, then explore the UNESCO World Heritage site of Lunenburg with its colourful wooden architecture and shipbuilding traditions. Savour the legendary Maritime hospitality through traditional kitchen parties featuring Celtic music and step dancing, while indulging in the world’s finest seafood from lobster and scallops to Malpeque oysters fresh from pristine coastal waters. Witness the highest tides in the world at the Bay of Fundy, explore charming Charlottetown’s Confederation history, and experience the unique Acadian culture that has thrived in these coastal communities for over 400 years.
