Leisure
travel is
a wonderful experience that everyone should have in their lifetime. Even
business travel can be made enjoyable. There are some aspects of travel that
can detract from your enjoyment. When
planning to fly for a trip, don't forget any frequent flier miles you might
have racked up. It does you no good to hang onto those once you've already gone
on your big vacation. Even if you don't have enough miles to cover the whole
trip, many airlines will allow you to discount your rate using your miles. When you want to
plan a vacation contact me!
New Brunswick
New Brunswick is a maritime province with four coastlines - on
Chaleur Bay, the Gulf of St Lawrence, the Northumberland Strait and the Bay of
Fundy. Routes along these coasts can provide an interesting introduction to the
area, opening up a vista of dramatic rocks, such as at Hopewell Cape, and sea
dotted with islands that boast astonishing glimpses of unusual fauna, birds and
wildlife. Millions of flowers dot the land as far as the eye can see, carpeting
the province in color.
New
Brunswick is the most heavily forested of all Canada's provinces (indeed,
arguably, one of the most forested jurisdictions in North America).
Criss-crossed as the province is with lakes, rivers and streams, escapes into
New Brunswick's wilderness are likely to be based around activities such as
canoeing, kayaking, fishing or swimming.
The
produce from New Brunswick's waters is exceptional. Shediac has long been known
for lobster, although stocks have, sadly, been declining in recent years. In
addition, the province's salmon is succulent, the scallops are plump and juicy,
and year-round blue mussels are delicious. From staring out at the 15m (50ft)
tides of the Bay of Fundy to staring out at the vast Grand Lake, there is much
in New Brunswick to whet the appetite.
Where to stay in New Brunswick
Hotels
There are hundreds of
hotels/motels, bed & breakfast inns and condo cottages available to rent.
The main centers of population are on the coast and in the river valleys, and
these generally offer the best choice of hotel or motel accommodation. There
are also numerous guest houses and youth hostels. For information on
accommodation, contact Tourism New Brunswick (see Important Addresses.
