The Algonquin Golf course, designed by award winning designer Thomas McBroom, is a golf masterwork in a spectacular seaside location. The \”new\” facility incorporated the land from the first 18 hole and 9 hole courses and an additional 50 acres and transformed it into a top notch golf course measuring close to 7 thousand yards and playing to a par of 71. Included is a full service Golf Academy with a 20 acre practice range, a separate short game area and a putting green. The golf course has been rated (by Borseman) as the top course to play in the province.

Other courses in Charlotte County include the St. Stephen Golf Club, the St. Croix Golf & Country Club in Calais, ME and the Campobello Herring Cove Provincial Golf Course. For variety, another 6 courses are located in the Saint John area. Saint Andrews also has the W.C. O\’Neill Arena, a formidable multi-purpose facility. It has rinks for curling, hockey and skating, theatres and tennis courts. In the summer, one of the oldest and most prestigious hockey schools in North America operates at the arena. Other activities include tennis at the Algonquin Tennis Club, badminton, volleyball, basketball, football and swimming.

Saint Andrews has maintained the qualities that have brought visitors for over a hundred years, and remains a city full of character, quality and charm. The biggest full service resort in eastern Canada, the Algonquin has first class convention facilities, and with a recent $10 million addition, 240 more rooms. Maintaining this character is enhanced by many important sites including the Algonquin Hotel, a Battle of 1812 Blockhouse, the Charlotte County Court-house, and an impressive collection of period homes.

The old downtown commercial core is a shopper\’s heaven, and it\’s especially famous for handcrafts and woolen products. The Public Wharf at the centre of town acts as the gateway to the abundant recreational water activities of Passamaquoddy Bay. Actually the sea life of the region is so varied that Saint Andrews is home to 3 research laboratories. For visitors, Huntsman Aquarium-Museum offersan engaging look at the Bay of Fundy ecological system.

If you\’re interested in seeing the Bay of Fundy in all its glory, St. Andrews by the Sea is the ideal place to stay the night!

Named one of Canada\’s Top Ten Public Gardens and an Attractions Canada national winner for best developed outside attraction, Kingsbrae Garden, an imposing 27 acre horticultural masterpiece sitting within the heart of Saint Andrews is open everyday for all to enjoy from mid May until October. With over 40,000 trees, plants and evergreens, a stunning view of Minister\’s Island and overlooking Passamaquoddy Bay, the consistently changing garden extends a natural invitation to return continuously.

Established in 1964 and found inside Centennial House, a former general store on the Saint Andrews\’ waterfront, Sunbury Shores is, as its name suggests, a meeting place for the study, practice and appreciation of fine art and craft, for natural history study and for conservation education.

The Centre offers a year round exhibition gallery, as well as artist\’s studios, a pro printing shop, library, children\’s nature room, pottery studio, children\’s programs, nature excursions and a globally recognized summer art school featuring famous artists as instructors each year.

The active and the adventurous will find a plethora of adventure in St. Andrews by-the-Sea. Be it seaside golf, a dozen of whale-watching vessels with an equal number of whale species to view, or a relaxing stroll around our historical community with a thorough walking map, Saint Andrews offers something for everyone. Other activities include sea canoeing, hiking, trails to spectacular lookout points, tennis, fishing, river cruising, underwater diving, guided walking tours, several parks and open spaces for picnics, and children\’s play-grounds.

While golf has been played in these parts since 1890, the new course that was created in 1998 became operational in July 2000. The golfer will capture impressive vistas of the St. Croix River and then as they come down the slope of the tricky, wind-swept par 3, 12th hole, will be afforded a sweeping view of the Saint Andrews harbour. By the time they reach the Clubhouse, situated on a knoll looking out over the town and Navy Island, they will have earned a well deserved break. Enjoy!

Interested in a visit? Luckily , there are a lot of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick resorts. And if you are in Saint Andrews between May and October, make sure you use that chance to experience whale watching Bay of Fundy style!

She introduced us to Jamie Kent, owner of Grand Experiences, an award-winning canoe and kayak outfitter that also offers rafting, mountainbiking, fishing expeditions, guided hikes and even corporate teambuilding. After a successful management career in the paint and chemicals industry, Jamie started his company about 10 years ago with the full support of his family. Today Grand Experiences has customers from all over the world, including Europe, Australia, Asia and Africa.

We started our Grand River tour in the historic town of Paris, which was first settled in 1829 and officially became incorporated as a town in 1850. Jamie explained that the town is particularly well-known for its Victorian cobblestone architecture which is highlighted by several unique historic buildings that are constructed from small rounded riverstones.

Jamie put the area into context and explained that it has historically been fairly thinly populated, and the surrounding countryside is mostly used for agricultural purposes. Paris is named after plaster of Paris, due to the once plentiful gypsum deposits that were mined in the area. I also learned that the Grand River is a designated heritage river due to its historic significance.

Our river guide also turned out to be an expert on the fauna and the flora of the Grand River area. As the largest river in Southwestern Ontario, the Grand has particular ecological significance as a spawning ground for many different types of cold water and warm water fish. In addition, it is part of the Carolinian forest zone which includes typically more southern plant species such as sassafras, sycamore, tulip trees, black willows, and Kentucky coffee trees.

The fall colours were just starting to come in during this early October weekend, and we enjoyed the quiet tranquility of the Grand River. Jamie pointed out the primitive plaster mining shafts in the riverbank which have been abandoned for more than 150 years now. Ospreys were soaring high overhead on this beautiful day.

We slowly floated by local sights such as the remains of the corduroy road, a timber log roadway that was used more than a century ago to transport the plaster alongside the river. Another major sight is Sarahs Island, a long island that is named after a native woman who made her home here during the summer months for many years until she passed away in the late 1990s. We also passed underneath the bridges of Highway 403, a fairly recently constructed highway that finally made this region more accessible to travelers from Toronto, Detroit and Buffalo.

After about two hours we had finally reached our destination, the Brant Conservation Area, where our local tourist expert Melissa picked us up. Chilled to the bone we were grateful she took us to a local café in Brantford, the Blue Dog Café. We finally warmed up with a nice lunch and went on a driving tour through the historic Dufferin Avenue neighbourhood in Brantford. Given this citys history as a former industrial powerhouse, many of the factory owners and upper class residents lived in magnificent Victorian mansions, many of which are still well-preserved.

After a visit to the beautiful grounds of the Glenhurst Art Gallery and Gardens, our stay in Brantford ended with a phenomenal lookout over the Grand River Valley from the Brantford Golf and Country Club. Our two-and-a-half days in Brantford had turned out to be a great action-packed getaway.
