One look at the silky, blue waves and the sun-glazed beaches... one glimpse of the colourful, culturally rich towns and villages along the way... and you know you've reached the exquisite Acadian coast. It's time to immerse yourself in its ambience. Kick off your flip-flops and be the first in the surf, or stroll the magnificence of one of the last great sand dunes on the northeastern coast of North America. Feeling refreshed, you find yourself hungry for some delicious French-flavoured cuisine. The sun sets with a much-anticipated invitation to a night of 'fiddles and spoons' music or a chat with the joyous Acadian character, la Sagouine. And if you thought happiness came in one word only, then you haven't experienced the soul-satisfying Acadian joie de vivre!
