New Brunswick, the largest
of Canada's three Maritime
Provinces, is nestled
under Quebec's Gaspé
Peninsula and beside
the State of Maine.
Its northern border
also includes the Restigouche
River and the Baie des
Chaleurs.
The eastern boundary
is entirely coastal
- the Gulf of St Lawrence
and Northumberland Strait
- and delightfully dotted
with warm, sandy beaches...the
warmest salt water north
of Virginia.
Chignecto Bay and the
24-kilometre (15-mile)
wide Isthmus of Chignecto,
which connects New Brunswick
to Nova Scotia, form
part of New Brunswick's
southern border.
The rest of it is the
Bay of Fundy. Its tides
- the highest and wildest
in the world - have
carved a spectacular
coastline. New Brunswick
is also connected to
Prince Edward Island
by the world-famous
Confederation Bridge.
Let us show you how
to experience the best
of New Brunswick, and
plan your New Brunswick
vacation. What's unique
to see and do, where
to travel and where
to stay?

Things to Do
From the Bay of Fundy
to an Appalachian mountaintop,
it's an experience you'll
never forget. You can
walk on the ocean floor
and a few hours later;
kayak the world's highest
tides in the exact same
spot. Our dunes and
discovery beaches invite
you to explore nature's
greatest phenomena.
Or you can tour the
Maritimes' most spectacular
rivers by boat, by ferry,
or hike, bike or drive
beside waterside scenery
that will take your
breath away. Don't miss
our covered bridges.
Three unique coastlines
offer countless ways
to explore… enjoy succulent
seafood… or bask on
a beach… you will find
more kinds of whales
more often than anywhere
else… world-famous birding
hot spots… and miles
of coastline to experience
one lighthouse at a
time. A treasury of
enchanted coastal islands
will take you to New
Brunswick's timeless
drama by the sea.
Our special blend of
Aboriginal, Acadian,
Brayonne, Loyalist,
Irish, and Scottish
cultures have created
an extraordinary mosiac
to enjoy and experience.

Scenic Drives
River Valley, Fundy
Coastal, Acadian Coastal,
Miramichi River, and
Appalachian Range -
are a smorgasbord of
tantalizingly beautiful
scenery, urban and rural
experiences galore.
Miramichi - Stop here
where the mighty Miramichi
River meets the salt
waters of the Northumberland
Strait. Be sure to ask
about the vivid local
legends and folklore
that have passed down
through generations.
Cap Pele - At first
glance, Cap-Pelé paints
a seaside postcard of
a colorful Acadian village...
with tall sea grass
swaying gently across
long sandy beaches…a
collection of brightly
painted fishing boats
bobbing alongside the
wooden wharves…and children
splashing in the some
of the warmest salt
water north of Virginia.
