Eastern Canada wildlife encounters shaped by Atlantic Ocean

The provinces of Eastern Canada were largely settled by people who made their living off the abundant natural resources available in the Atlantic Ocean. Fisheries in Newfoundland, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia fed people round the world and in bygone days sealing and whaling also drove the economy. Today, the Atlantic Ocean provides industry through more eco-friendly whale-watching tours, rail journeys along the shoreline and through wilderness areas, and private fishing trips. Canada Your Way is pleased to offer a variety of holiday itineraries that will introduce travelers to the more than 20 species of whales and dolphins that live off the shores of the East Coast and to the joys of fishing and catching lobster before partaking of the catch at day’s end. Tall ships, small ships, Zodiacs, and luxury rail journeys are just some of the ways you can get close to the natural wonders of Canada’s East Coast.
