Between a rock
and a soft place.
Fogo Island Inn, Newfoundland and Labrador
Sea and Serenity
6
Newfoundland and Labrador is often referred to as “the rock” and with good reason, the remarkable
geological landscape lets you explore pieces of the earth that are billions of years old. But don’t
let that rugged exterior fool you, there’s a tranquil, calming, soft side to the province as well.
While you are here you can gaze across the ocean, watch the waves, whales and seabirds and lose all sense of time. We’ve
designed this package especially for those who want an opportunity to catch their breath. Catch their breath in the freshest
air, with a hint of mist from the sea.
Spend your days exploring magical coastlines and your evenings enjoying each other’s company at some of the province’s
most luxurious accommodations, including three nights at the Fogo Island Inn.

The Bay of Fundy and its legendary high tides promise to
be the highlight of this trip as you explore beautiful New
Brunswick. With the help of 100 billion tonnes of seawater
that flow in and out of the Bay of Fundy each day, the
resulting 50 foot tides are the highest in the world! As you
witness the Hopewell Rocks at both low and high tide, you’ll
be amazed at the difference a few hours can make.
Whale watching is a must as the area is home to half the
world’s population of the endangered North Atlantic Right
Whale. You can also put sea kayaking, hiking, a delicious
lobster supper, and more on your list of things to do!

6 Night Itinerary
It’s no wonder the Fathers of Confederation met in
Charlottetown: this peaceful, languid province has the
ability to win over the hearts of all those who visit Prince
Edward Island.
Cradled on the waves of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, Prince
Edward Island is known for the vivid colours of its gently
rolling landscape. For visitors who come from all over the
world, it’s the attraction of a little red-headed girl called
Anne and her Green Gables home. Then there’s the fine,
warm red sand beaches, said to be the warmest this far
north of the sun-belt. Come for the golf, the beaches,
literary legends, politics or princes and you'll get an
unforgettable holiday experience, fit for royalty.
