Prince Edward Island Island Tides Yoga & Wellness Festival June 16 to 19
Nova Scotia Digby Scallop Days August 4 to 7
The last couple of years in particular have really shone a spotlight on the importance of personal health. As a result, the Island Tides Yoga & Wellness Festival was born. A collaborative effort between the Discover Charlottetown travel association and local partners, beginners and seasoned yogis alike are welcome to join on classes led by some of the best teachers in Canada. Alternatively, learn about clean beauty and self love from thought-leaders in an informal setting, partake in a stand-up paddleboard session or experience guided meditation to quiet the mind. After working up an appetite, visit the food vendors offering up fresh and nourishing fare the Maritimes is known for.
Head to the scallop capital of the world for Digby Scallop Days, a four-day celebration of Nova Scotia’s scallop fishing industry and the people who brave the seas to harvest them. Virtually all the eateries in the area serve the specialty shellfish during this weekend seared, fried, barbecued and in delicious chowder form. Then, walk off the meal and check out the boat gear and shucking demonstrations right off the dock, car show & shine and even a woodsmen competition. Make sure to bring a lawn chair as there are live concerts and a fireworks show as well.
