Another one of the cornerstones of places to visit in Canada would certainly be Halifax. Halifax was the site of the first British town in Canada, founded in 1749. Since then, the area has evolved to be home for a diverse mix of people. Charming fishing villages, farming communities and Atlantic Canada’s largest city are just some of the things which Halifax has to offer.

If you’re looking for flights to Halifax, Nova Scotia from the UK, make sure you have a look at Canadian Affair. Canadian Affair runs flights through well known and popular Thomas Cook, so you’ll be flying Thomas Cook or well known (in Canada) Canadian airline Air Transat. In 2009 Canadian Affair was voted ‘Consumer Favourite Tour Operator’ and ‘Consumer Favourite Ski Operator’ by the Canadian Tourism Commission. And with my experience in flying with them, every time i have been i will recommend them over and over as the one stop shop you should be looking at should you want to fly to Canada.

If you’re looking for a base in Nova Scotia, this really is the place you will want to head out to.

In the heart of the downtown you’ll find art galleries, museums, historic sites and churches, shopping, sidewalk cafés and friendly nightclubs. Lively pubs and livelier entertainment and a nightlife that doesn’t quit, spectacular shows, first class sporting events, riveting live theatre on both sides of the harbour, amazing dining and non-stop fun are the ticket to an exhiliarating Halifax experience.

If you seek peaceful nature scenes, head out of the downtown for nearby communities offering hiking, camping, and bird watching. Let yourself be romanced by the sea. Everyone is drawn to the ocean – the crisp tang of salt air, fresh breezes, and an ever-changing panorama of colour and light. Everyone should experience the pleasure of a broad sandy beach, the awesome power of waves crashing against a rocky shore, or the simple pleasure of beachcombing for unexpected treasures from the sea. Stroll our boardwalks and see ships from around the world, watch fishermen at their timeless tasks or sail or kayak among the many islands of our beautiful bays.

Halifax really is a place to see the beauty of Nova Scotia – Renowned for the highest tides in the world at the Bay of Fundy, award-winning vineyards scattered about the province, nationally recognised chefs at the helm of Nova Scotia restaurants and over 700 festivals annually, Nova Scotia is a place of remarkable natural beauty and thriving culture. Relax at Peggy’s Cove fishing village, go on a whale watching trip, tour the Cabot Trail on Cape Breton Island, experience Nova Scotia golf, learn about Nova Scotia genealogy or explore one of Canada’s Seven Wonders Pier 21 on a Halifax tour. From seaside inns to quaint bed and breakfasts, to urban Nova Scotian hotels, Nova Scotia really will be a holiday to remember!

In the future we’ll be posting about all the attractions in and around Halifax, so you’ll be able to make the most of your trip out!
