It is Canada's second smallest province and tucked away in the south eastern corner of the Atlantic coastline. There are over 7,000km of rugged coastlines with powdery white beaches, world-class surf and tasty seafood including its world famous red lobsters.
With mild winters and warm summers averaging up to 23 degrees, outdoor pursuits are available in abundance; a ski season that runs from December until March, walking, fishing, boating and everything else offered by the Great Outdoors.
