Farthest east, the Atlantic Canada region is made up of four provinces, Newfoundland, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia. But even among Canadians, there is sometimes confusion about the definition of “Atlantic Canada” versus “the Maritimes.” The latter comprises New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island, while Atlantic Canada comprises the Maritime provinces together with Newfoundland and Labrador. Made up of rocky coasts, this region has plenty to offer for adventure seekers. Pine forests and rocky cliffs dominate New Bunswick’s unspoiled landscape, while puffins and icebergs are visible in the rugged stretches of Newfoundland and Labrador. For something slightly more low-key, visit the picturesque fishing villages of Nova Scotia or discover the birthplace of the Canadian Confederation in P.E.I., the country’s smallest province. Tied together by scenic routes, the little towns of Atlantic Canada are ideal for road-trippers to explore the distinctive food and culture this region has to offer.
