🍁 O Canada 🇨🇦

Simon, part of the HF Holidays Product Development team, tells us why our new holiday, Maritime Canada: Nova Scotia to Prince Edward Island, is one of the most exciting destinations to visit for 2025.

"Canada’s Maritimes are bursting with activity during the east coast’s short summer season. Stroll along Halifax's vibrant boardwalk and indulge in New Brunswick's famously large lobsters - said to be at their tastiest in June. Let the Atlantic Ocean air fill your lungs as you walk along dunes and rugged coastal trails in this amazing part of the world."
