• If youre thinking of vacationing in Canada
  this summer, youll soon discover that there are
  lots of destinations to choose from.

• International travel is fun, but it often

• But, why not celebrate Canada's 150th by

  country has to offer? Below are three of those

  experiences.

Sand Sculptures in Parksville, British Columbia

• Every July, the beachfront community of
  Parksville hosts perhaps the most amazing
  sandcastle competition in the world.

6

• Parksville is a popular golfing destination,
  but in the summer, its biggest draw is the Sand
  Sculpting Competition Exhibition, which
  attracts as many as 100,000 visitors in one
  month. During this time, American and Canadian
  competitors come together to make some of the
  most creative, beautiful and whimsical sand
  sculptures youll ever see.

Icebergs of Newfoundland

• Yes, Canada can be cold, even in the summer,
  but there are few things more interesting than
  the icebergs of Newfoundland. Iceberg Alley is
  the provinces most popular and accessible
  destination for iceberg spotting.

8

• That said, the icy structures could literally
  appear anywhere around the island.
• They begin to make their way along the coast
  in May, but the numbers taper offer in July, as
  it warms up. However, iceberg hunting in June and
  July is an adventure waiting to happen and an
  activity many vacationers do during the summer.

9
Beluga Whales of Churchill, Manitoba

• Churchill, Manitoba is well-known for its
  Polar Bear population, but the Beluga Whale
  population is even more interesting.

10

• In the summer, as many as 3,000 of these
  little white whales swim to the mouth of the
  Churchill River to feed on plankton. Theyre
  known to be fun, intelligent and gentle
  creatures, which makes them great snorkeling
  companions.

11

• You can plan a snorkeling adventure where
  guides can take you out to the beluga's
  playground. Theyre so friendly that theyll swim
  up and begin to play and interact with you. Like
  all snorkeling adventures, theres lots to
  explore, learn and discover, especially about the
  unique beluga whale.

  city is buzzing with excitement and people are
  partaking in a wide variety of festivities.

  exciting places and things that our fine country
