The Canadian Maritimes comprise one of the most exciting natural areas of North America, four provinces that each claims a distinct identity and history: Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland. This comprehensive tour visits all four, with a special emphasis on the unique geology of the region.
With Geologist Doris Sloan, visit the Bay of Fundy, which claims the highest tides in the world. View the impressive agricultural and pastoral lands of Prince Edward Island and the rugged coastal mountains of Cape Breton Island and Newfoundland. Visit Gros Morne Park in Newfoundland, containing some of the oldest exposed rock on earth.
