From the summit of Mount Royal overlooking a sea of city lights to the festive terraces of Plateau-Mont-Royal, Montréal never fails to enchant.
The only walled city north of Mexico, Quebec City is an incomparable jewel of French culture and living history perched dramatically above the St. Lawrence River. Wander the cobblestone lanes of UNESCO-recognized Old Quebec, where the magnificent Château Frontenac presides over the skyline and centuries of French colonial history unfold around every corner. Stroll the fortification walls, explore the storied Plains of Abraham battlefield, and discover the Lower Town's art galleries and cafés. This rare blend of European elegance and North American vitality makes Quebec City truly one of a kind.
Few natural wonders in eastern Canada rival the majesty of the Saguenay Fjord, a dramatic glacially carved cleft where steep cliff walls rise 1,500 feet above some of the deepest waters on the continent. The town of La Baie offers a gateway into this pristine wilderness, where beluga whales glide through cold dark waters and black bears roam boreal forests. Explore the outdoor sculpture garden at La Pulperie, discover the unique ecosystems of Saguenay–St. Lawrence Marine Park, or simply stand at the fjord's edge and breathe in the extraordinary wilderness all around you.
Nestled on the north shore of the St. Lawrence River beneath dramatic Quebec highlands, Baie-Comeau offers a compelling gateway into the untamed wilderness of the Manicouagan region. This compact industrial city, birthplace of former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, surprises visitors with striking Art Deco architecture and the famous Manicouagan Reservoir, a spectacular ring-shaped impact crater visible from space. Nearby, the iconic Manic-5 hydroelectric dam ranks among the world's largest, a testament to Quebec's engineering ambitions and the raw power of its northern rivers.
Set at the dramatic tip of the Gaspésie Peninsula where the St. Lawrence River meets the Gulf, Gaspé is a land of breathtaking contrasts and wild, unspoiled beauty. Towering limestone cliffs, crashing sea stacks, and pristine boreal forests define Forillon National Park, a natural wonder that shelters black bears, moose, and seabirds. Jacques Cartier planted his cross here in 1534, claiming this rugged land for France — a moment you can relive at the historic Gaspé Cathedral. Whale watching, sea kayaking, and panoramic coastal drives round out this extraordinary destination.
Sailing on the Gulf of St. Lawrence
Step ashore on the birthplace of Canada, where Prince Edward Island's charming provincial capital charms visitors with its colorful Victorian streetscapes, red-sand beaches, and welcoming Maritime spirit. Walk the same streets where the Fathers of Confederation met in 1864 to shape a nation, then explore Confederation Landing and the lively waterfront. Fans of Anne of Green Gables will find kindred spirits here, while fresh lobster suppers, local artisan galleries, and beautifully preserved architecture make every moment in Charlottetown a delight.
Scenic sailing through the Strait of Canso
Nova Scotia's dynamic capital blends maritime heritage, world-class history, and rugged natural beauty into one captivating port of call. Explore the landmark Halifax Citadel, a star-shaped hilltop fortress offering panoramic views over the harbor. Stroll the vibrant waterfront boardwalk, delve into Titanic history at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic, and pay your respects at Fairview Lawn Cemetery. Just beyond the city, the hauntingly beautiful fishing village of Peggy's Cove and its iconic lighthouse await along the rugged Atlantic coast.
Yarmouth, NS
Sailing on the Atlantic Ocean
Maine's most vibrant coastal city invites you to discover its rugged shoreline, legendary lighthouses, and lively waterfront culture. Stroll the cobblestone streets of the Old Port, where craft breweries, acclaimed seafood, and eclectic boutiques fill historic brick buildings. Marvel at Portland Head Light, one of America's most photographed lighthouses, dramatically perched above the crashing surf of Cape Elizabeth. Sweeping views of island-dotted Casco Bay, elegant Victorian neighborhoods, and a thriving arts scene round out the unforgettable character of this New England gem.
