Saint Andrews, Canada - Vacation Packages

Once a haven for Loyalists fleeing the American Revolution, St. Andrews By-The-Sea blossomed into a seaside resort town combining the best of New England and the Maritimes. Boasting “no hay fever and a railway”, the grand hotels and choice amenities made St. Andrews Canada’s first true seaside resort.

Visit the 1800s at the Sheriff Andrews House, the Ross Museum, the Blockhouse and the County Courthouse and Gaol. Drive across the ocean floor to Minister’s Island. See underwater inhabitants at the Huntsman’s Aquarium Touch Tank or experience salmon face to face at the Atlantic Salmon Interpretive Centre. Go whale-watching, sea kayaking, take a dip in Katy’s Cove or watch the fishing boats come and go with the rise and fall of the famous Fundy tides from Market Wharf. Ride a passenger ferry to Roosevelt’s beloved Island, Campobello.

Wander through the 27-acre Kingsbrae Garden named by Attractions Canada as “Canada’s best developed outdoor site category for 2001″ or try Golf Canada magazine’s 2001 pick for the province’s best golf course. Visit the gallery at Sunbury Shores Arts and Nature Centre or enroll in one of their many summer courses. Stroll along Water Street and admire our historic buildings full of locally made products such as hand-knit sweaters from Cottage Craft, natural soaps from Garden by-the-Sea, or a hand-blown glass whale tail from Jon Sawyer. Enjoy concerts, theatre productions and summer workshops given by the St. Andrews Arts Council. At St. Andrews, there’s something for everyone.
