New Brunswick Travel Guide: Travel and tourist information, things to do and see in New Brunswick

New Brunswick is located on Canada's east coast along the Atlantic Ocean. The province is easily accessible from Ontario, Quebec, New England, and from American cities along the eastern seaboard. While visiting New Brunswick, try some great seafood dishes, go whale watching, go bird-watching in some world-renowned areas in the province, bask on a beach on one of the three coastlines, visit the Bay of Fundy or the Appalachian mountains!

Enjoy New Brunswick's natural beauty while taking a Fundy Coastal drive, a River Valley drive, an Acadian Coastal drive, or a Miramichi River drive! Don't forget to visit cultural spots highlighted by Aborigianl, Acadian, Brayonne, Irish, and Scottish nationalities!

Stop at New Brunswick's capital city Fredericton and enjoy delightful entertainment, dining, and sightseeing. After an interesting day in Fredericton, enjoy a cozy five star bed and breakfast at the Country Lane B & B Inn, or pamper yourself at the luxurious Red Rose Mansion built in 1904!

Discover giant pillars of rock carved by the world's highest tides. In the wake of incredible Natural Wonder, you'll find New Brunswick's Bay of Fundy , One of the Marine Wonders of the World. Vast expanses of windswept dunes are waiting and an infinite number of ways to experience age-old mountain peaks and rivers that stretch from breathtaking to beautiful!

The second largest country on earth (only the Russian Federation is bigger), it stretches over 3,400 miles from Atlantic to Pacific coast, spans six of the world's 24 time zones and could fit most of Europe within its borders.

Yet 90 per cent of the population lives within 100 miles of the US border, leaving huge tracts of unspoilt wilderness elsewhere.

It's the edginess between Canada's indigenous, French and British traditions that gives the nation its complex three-dimensional character. Add to this a constant infusion of US culture and a plethora of traditions brought by migrants, and you have a thriving multicultural society.

With its history, people, landscape and natural beauty, Canada offers an abundance of well-known cities, attractions, parks and regions that make for wonderful destinations whether you're looking for a trip that's educational, inspiring or just plain fun. But don't pass up a chance to explore the less-travelled areas, too - at the fringes of the inhabited world, great challenges, eye-opening experiences and hospitable people await.

From its large cosmopolitan cities to its frozen northern tundra; its snowy mountain peaks to its rugged coastlines; and its rich farmlands to its pioneering outposts, Canada offers something to suit the taste of every traveller. Canada is bound in the west by the Pacific Ocean and Alaska, to the east by the Atlantic Ocean, to the north by the polar ice-cap, and in the south by the United States of America.
