A land of contrasts; majestic mountains, sweeping coastlines, fine dining and plenty to do.
If you’ve discounted crossing the pond, think again, as with flights to Eastern Canada now taking just seven hours, you can explore its stunning seascapes quicker than you’d think possible. With the stunning Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland and Labrador to explore, you could go whale watching in the morning, kayaking and cycling in the afternoon, try out a new links golf course and then sample the wonderful local cuisine including of course locally caught sea food. There are many award- winning chefs and restaurants in the area and lots to do and see.
