The Best Small Towns and Villages
Lunenburg (Nova Scotia): Settled by German, Swiss, and French colonists, this tidy town is superbly situated on a hill flanked by two harbors, and it boasts some of the most unique and quietly extravagant architecture in the Maritimes.
Victoria (Prince Edward Island): This wee village west of Charlottetown is surrounded by fields of grain and potatoes, and hasn't changed much in the last 100 years. Try to time your visit to take in an evening show at the town's wonderfully old-fashioned theater.
Trinity (Newfoundland): Three centuries ago, Trinity was among the most important ports in the New World, when English merchants controlled the flow of goods in and out of the New World. This compact village has also been among the most aggressive in preserving its past, and the architecture and perfect scale of the village is unmatched in Atlantic Canada.
Twillingate (Newfoundland): This end-of-the-world village is located on and around the convoluted harbors and inlets of Newfoundland's north-central shore. At the mouth of the Notre Dame bay, high headlands mark the way for incoming ships; walk out here and scan the watery horizon for whales and icebergs.
