Where the Atlantic Meets Two Worlds
Close to home, yet far from ordinary, Canada & New England is one of North America's most rewarding cruise regions — a journey shaped by dramatic coastlines, historic port cities, vibrant waterfronts, rich cultural traditions, and the unmistakable rhythm of life by the sea.
Stretching from iconic New England harbors to Atlantic Canada and the Saint Lawrence River, the region blends effortless accessibility with rich cultural discovery. Travelers can begin their journey from four easily accessible homeports including New York, Boston, Montréal, or Québec City before immersing themselves in the European-inspired charm of Montréal and Québec City, the maritime traditions of Atlantic Canada, the timeless character of New England, and centuries of Indigenous, Acadian, Gaelic, English, and Nordic heritage woven throughout the coast.
Landscapes on a Grand Scale
The journey is equally defined by natural scale and unforgettable taste: spectacular Atlantic coastlines, national parks, coastal drives, dramatic tides
Château Frontenac
Stroll through charming cobblestone streets as the iconic Château Frontenac overlooks Québec City, where stunning architecture, rich history, and fortified walls create one of North America’s most captivating destinations.
Saguenay Fjord
Cruise through a spectacular glacier-carved fjord framed by soaring cliffs and pristine wilderness, where dramatic landscapes and idyllic villages create one of Québec’s most unforgettable journeys.
Peggy’s Cove Lighthouse
Watch waves roll across smooth granite shores as the famed Peggy’s Cove Lighthouse stands alongside a picturesque fishing village, creating one of Atlantic Canada’s most photographed coastal landscapes.
Portland’s Historic Waterfront
Explore Portland’s lively waterfront, where working wharves, bustling harbour views, and maritime traditions create the unmistakable charm of coastal Maine.
A Culinary Destination Defined by the Ocean
Sea-to-table traditions run deep here. Local markets, orchards, vineyards, fresh seafood, and the culinary energy of Québec and Montréal define a region where every meal tells a story.
Atlantic Canada
A taste of Canada’s East Coast
Atlantic Canada’s food culture is deeply connected to the land, sea, and people who call the region home. Across Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador, travellers discover local seafood, regional specialties, and authentic flavours shaped by generations of fishing, farming, and maritime traditions. From vibrant waterfronts to coastal communities, every port offers a delicious introduction to life on Canada’s East Coast.
Québécois cuisine
Québec's culinary identity is unmistakable. Poutine in its many forms, tourtière (spiced meat pie), soupe aux pois, and indulgent sugar pie reflect a French-Canadian tradition centuries in the making. Montréal's smoked meat and bagels have achieved near-mythical status.
Fresh Oysters — Portland, ME
Maine’s cold, pristine waters produce some of the finest oysters on the East Coast — best enjoyed freshly shucked at a harborside raw bar in Portland. And for those sailing from New York, the journey begins in a city celebrated for its own ever-evolving, world-class food scene, where legendary delis, acclaimed chefs, and global flavours set the stage for the culinary adventure ahead.
For travel advisors and their clients, Canada & New England offers a compelling promise: the richness of a faraway journey with the ease of a closer-to-home experience. It is scenic, cultural, culinary, accessible, and deeply memorable — a cruise region that feels both welcoming and wonderfully unexpected.
