    Halifax, in Nova Scotia, is a great place to start, though hiring a car in Halifax is the key that will unlock a treasure trove of amazing places in the province and beyond. Let the open road lead the way and discover more of Nova Scotia.

    Known as Canada's 'Ocean Playground', it's fair to say that the beaches of Nova Scotia are worth discovering. Vast expanses of sand make family adventures unforgettable thanks to plentiful opportunities to build sandcastles, take chilly dips, try surfing or tethering a kite to your wrist and letting the breeze work its magic. Check out some of the best beaches, including Melmerby, Inverness, Risser's, Martinique and Five Islands Beach, on the Bay of Fundy. You can also take boat tours and try pursuits such as fishing and kayaking.

    Take a journey to Cape Breton Island, where Scottish influence still holds strong - you can even witness Highland Games taking place.

    Alternatively, drive into New Brunswick or take your adventurous spirit further into Canada or the United States - a road trip is a great and easy way to see a varied range of places thanks to the convenience of your hired wheels.
