Canada / New England Cruise Highlights
North America's northeastern seaboard might not immediately spring to mind when one thinks of cruising, but it is an ideal place to visit by ship. With a number of inlets, islands and seaside towns to explore, the region is brimming with activities and bucket-list experiences. Sail around the Statue of Liberty in New York, hike through Acadia National Park in Maine, and whale watch in St. John's Newfoundland. Be sure to try poutine, a Canadian favorite, and clam chowder from New England.
Popular Canada / New England Cruise Ports
Ports of call on cruises to this region cover a number of states - Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Maine - and Canadian provinces, like Nova Scotia and Cape Breton Island. Here are three of the most visited ports: :
- Saint John, New Brunswick: The oldest incorporated city in Canada is full of natural wonders; most famously, its twice-daily tide turns at the Bay of Fundy. Watch the water level rise an astounding four stories, a phenomenon known as the Reversing Rapids. In the evening, take a stroll through charming Uptown Saint John, a mix of historical architecture and incredible, modern dining.
- Newport, Rhode Island: Once a summer playground for America's rich and famous, Newport is home to many well-preserved mansions, sailboats and lighthouses. Feel the elegance of the old-world Atlantic on a tour of the Newport Mansions, at a sailing regatta, or while visiting colonial-era marvels like Trinity Church. Family-friendly fun can be had at the Newport Aquarium and Brenton Point State Park.
- Quebec City, Quebec: Get a taste of the French-Canadian identity in this historical, glimmering town. Spend time in Old Town, a perfectly preserved maze of cobblestone streets, sidewalk cafes, and towering churches, and visit the beautiful Basilica of Saint Anne-de-Beaupre. Don't leave without seeing the stunning Montmorency Falls.
