Explore Activities, Tourism, Things To Do, Planning Tips & Travel Information

Discover coastal beauty, cultural heritage, and outdoor adventures across New Brunswick, Canada

Welcome to New Brunswick Canada Adventure Travel, your trusted guide to eco-conscious tourism and outdoor activities in one of Canada’s most captivating Maritime provinces. Known for the world’s highest tides, rich Acadian culture, and diverse natural landscapes, New Brunswick offers travelers a truly authentic East Coast Canadian experience. Whether you're hiking seaside trails, exploring historic districts, or whale-watching along the Bay of Fundy, this province is full of sustainable and exciting adventures.

New Brunswick Canada Adventure Travel and Provincial Highlights

Located on the southeast coast of Eastern Canada, New Brunswick Canada Adventure Travel spans over 72,000 square kilometres of wild coastal beauty, dense forests, and charming bilingual communities. It’s the largest Atlantic province and the only officially bilingual province in Canada, with French being widely spoken in the northern Acadian regions.

Fredericton, the capital city, sits along the Saint John River and offers a blend of urban comforts and historic charm. Its Historic Garrison District, once an 18th-century British army base, now features live performances, artisan markets, and the traditional Changing of the Guard ceremony. Many of the province’s top tourism attractions are just a short drive away, making trip planning simple and rewarding.

Activities and Things To Do in New Brunswick Canada Adventure Travel

Fortunately, there is no shortage of things to do for outdoor lovers and culture seekers alike. From kayaking and hiking to exploring historic lighthouses and artisan villages, New Brunswick Canada Adventure Travel is filled with year-round activities. In summer, visitors flock to Parlee Beach for warm waters and sandy shores, while autumn brings vibrant fall foliage perfect for nature walks and photography.

During the winter months, activities shift to snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and attending local festivals like the World Pond Hockey Championships. Because of the province’s compact size and well-connected communities, travelers can experience forests, coastline, and culture all in a single day.

Unique Tourism Experiences and Travel Tips

New Brunswick is home to some of Canada's most unique natural wonders and travel experiences. The Bay of Fundy is world-famous for having the highest tides on Earth, where visitors can walk the ocean floor at low tide and kayak among the Hopewell Rocks at high tide. Equally mesmerizing is the Old Sow Whirlpool, the second-largest whirlpool in the world, and Magnetic Hill, where cars appear to roll uphill.

Additionally, more than 65 wooden covered bridges are found across the province — including the Hartland Covered Bridge, the world’s longest at 398 metres. Because these destinations are scattered throughout the region, it is recommended to plan your trip with time for scenic drives and hidden gems.

Top Parks, Trails, and Heritage Sites in New Brunswick

For nature lovers, New Brunswick Canada Adventure Travel offers incredible provincial parks and trails. Popular options include Mactaquac Provincial Park near Fredericton, Irving Nature Park in Saint John, and Sackville Waterfowl Park, a haven for birdwatchers. The Grand Falls Gorge, Rockwood Park, and Swallowtail Lighthouse on Grand Manan Island also offer breathtaking views and eco-conscious recreational opportunities.

Meanwhile, cultural and heritage tourism is thriving across the province. Must-see sites include the Carleton Martello Tower National Historic Site, the P’tit Sault Blockhouse, Fort Beausejour, and the iconic World's Largest Lobster sculpture in Shediac — the self-proclaimed Lobster Capital of the World.

Eco-Conscious Travel Tips for New Brunswick Visitors

Because of its fragile ecosystems and historical landmarks, eco-friendly travel is encouraged throughout New Brunswick. Visitors are asked to follow Leave No Trace principles, support locally owned businesses, and engage with Indigenous and Acadian-led tourism operators for culturally respectful experiences.

Above all, travelers are invited to slow down and enjoy the province’s natural rhythms. Many attractions are best experienced with patience, local insight, and a sense of wonder — making your adventure both memorable and sustainable.

    As part of the Raising Stars Preschool Summer Adventure Program, a visit was made to Armory Park in Vernon, BC. Known for its spacious layout and family-friendly design. The playground area features a large sandy surface, making it ideal for sensory play and physical activity. Children explored two swings, a fun climbing structure, one-of-a-kind slides (one slide has a slant & curb), and a tunnel perfect for imaginative games and movement-based learning. Adding to the excitement, an Unplug and Play toy chest was discovered on the field—filled with free-access toys that encourage screen-free fun, collaboration, and creativity. This visit was part of our Summer Adventurer Program, which helps connect preschoolers with local parks, nature, and their community through hands-on, outdoor exploration.

    The capelin rolling in Newfoundland and Labrador is an event that always sparks a lot of excitment. These small silvery fish arrive in abundance in June or July bringing with them a host of seabirds, whales and other marine life that follow the capelin as a food source. The arrival of the capelin feels like the kick-off to summer and many beaches around the province provide spawning grounds for these little fish. In Newfoundland and Labrador, word spreads like wildfire when 'the capelin are rolling'. People flock in droves to beaches to try and catch sight of or to actually catch some of these wriggly fish. They are a traditional food source and I remember as a child my parents also using them to fertilize our lawn. According to the provincial government of Newfoundland and Labrador, there are over 30 different coves across the province with capelin in their name, demonstrating the importance of this fish to the culture of Newfoundland.On a kayak trip out of Chance Cove, Trinity Bay on Canada Day, I was lucky enough to witness schools of capelin darting this way and that underneath my boat. They move as a shimmering mass and it is mesmerizing to watch. The weather conditions that day meant I was able to paddle in close to shore to have an excellent view of the capelin in the shallow, clear water. I could see the females washing up on the beach to lay their eggs in gravel that had already been fertilized by the males. We are fortuante to witness this annual spectacle in Newfoundland and being in a kayak provided a really interesting and not commonly seen perspective on the capelin roll.

    Raising Stars Summer Adventure Program spent the day exploring Sovereign Park and Beach — a hidden, tucked-away shoreline far from the hustle and bustle of the busy tourist season. This peaceful beach offered the perfect setting for a calm and engaging day of outdoor discovery. Our young adventurers explored gentle walking trails surrounded by nature, shaded picnic tables, a large open field, and convenient public washrooms. Along the way, we encountered incredible wildlife — including a deer and several Canadian geese — igniting curiosity and wonder in the children. At Raising Stars, safety is always our highest priority. During water play, children are only allowed in shallow areas, with water reaching approximately waist height. A teacher is always within arm’s reach to ensure active supervision and support. While the water may appear deeper in photos or videos due to floating or swimming movement, strict safety measures are followed. If families provide life jackets, they are used during water activities. We maintain a low 1:5 teacher-to-child ratio to ensure every child is carefully monitored and supported throughout the day. The Raising Stars Summer Adventure Program blends Reggio-inspired, play-based learning with meaningful outdoor experiences. Sovereign Park and Beach offered a perfect natural classroom where children could explore, imagine, and make lasting summer memories.
