Only in Canada... Iceberg Alley Iceberg Alley spans from the coast of Labrador to the southeast coast of the island of Newfoundland and is one of the best places in the world for viewing Icebergs. Icebergs are edges of glaciers that have broken off and slipped into the ocean. Roughly 90% of icebergs that pass through Iceberg Alley come from the glaciers of western Greenland, while the rest come from glaciers in Canada’s Arctic.
Ice explorer ride onto Athabasca Glacier, Canadian Rockies The Athabasca Glacier is approximately 3.7 miles long, covers an area of 2.3 sq miles, and is measured to be between 90–300 metres (300–980 ft) thick. The glacier currently recedes at a rate of about 5 metres (16 ft) per year and has lost over half of its volume in the past 125 years. The leading edge of the glacier is within easy walking distance; however, travel onto the glacier is not recommended unless properly equipped. The best way to explore the Athabasca Glacier is aboard a specially designed snow coach, that is purpose built to travel over the steep grades, snow and ice, safely transporting visitors part the way up the glacier.
The Bay of Fundy, New Brunswick The Bay of Fundy’s unique shape amplifies the tides to as much as 16 m (56 feet), the height of a 5-storey building. Fundy has the highest tides on earth. It is also known for the rarest whales in the world, semi-precious minerals and dinosaur fossils. If you are feeling adventurous you can even opt to do Tidal Bore Rafting on the Bay of Fundy!
Volcano & Ice Cave Helicopter ride, Whistler Enjoy a 75 min scenic mountainous helicopter flight from Whistler to the ancient Mount Meager Volcano. A quick stop at the Volcano to discover the deep cavern venting steam fringed by dramatic backdrops. You will then be transported over the formations of ancient glaciers to enjoy the rare beauty of glacial caverns. Enjoy the interpretive tour by a highly trained guide as they walk you through the blue rooms & multiple tunnels of azure blue crystalline formations and impressive vaulted ceilings of ancient remote ice caves. Total travel time to/from the ice caves is 75 mins return. This year-round experience includes lunch, setup in one of the ice caves. 6
