Looks like local Canadian travel is back on the menu this summer. Spring is here and summer is ever so slowly creeping around the corner. It’s getting that time to get your friends are start planning some summer trips. Most people don’t even think “Canada” when they think summer vacation, but think again on this one. So once you’re done your spring cleaning, get planning a summer trip.

3 Unknown Canadian Summer Destinations

Sayulita? Don’t think so. Save your money and summer vacay local this year.

Vancouver Island

Okay, you may know this one, but hear us out. You definitely haven’t done Vancouver Island like this; if you live on the west coast, grab a few friends, a camper van and get ready. When you reach the island, take the Oceanside route. Take this route all the way from Parksville to Campbell River, stopping along the way to enjoy the scenery. After that, take the North Island Route and enjoy all the island can offer.

Quebec City

Montreal? Pftt, no, thanks. Quebec City is where it’s at now, most people do not think about Quebec City as being a summer destination, wrong. You have three choices to get there from the West Coast, plane, train or car. Anyway you choose, you will love Quebec City. If you are a family, don’t miss Canada’s largest indoor amusement park: Méga Parc des Galeries de la Capitale. If you are travelling with friends, Quebec City has some amazing pubs, restaurants and nightlife.

Nova Scotia

Weird one, but we promise you will love it. In particular the Cabot Trail, this one we highly recommend renting an RV for and going for about a week. This will be one road trip you won’t soon forget. Plus you can tell are your west coast friends you’ve been to Nova Scotia. This trail has tons of amazing bed and breakfasts should you not want to sleep in your RV one night and change things up.

Maybe time to do Canada this summer. With the dollar not the greatest lately, maybe time to wait for that European Vacation. Planning an extended vacation? Make sure to store your stuff with North Shore Mini Storage.

This is inexpensive storage that operates 100% as advertised - they do not offer 24/7 access and do not charge 24/7 access pricing. They are incredibly responsive to requests to unlock doors and provide access. It is not fancy but if you need a clean, dry place to store your stuff, you can't beat these guys. Don't expect bells and/or whistles but you also won't be paying for them.

Have to phone to have buildings unlocked. Annoying.

Prices are 1/2 the price of other storage units but it shuts down (locked gates) from 10 am - 6 pm except if you have the enormous ground level outside facing units. Those hours are impossible. The technology getting items up to the second story is an actual forklift thats made stationary. You balance your items up the forklift (and you raise the wooden pallet up yourself) Then you must walk up stairs and hope their is a dolly available to wind precariously around tiny turning hallways. Budget carpentry and ancient carpet in the units. The trolleys sound and feel like their from 1980's and are either coached to disobey or they keep their own counsel. They say its secure but I had a neighbor pick something up and they weren't even asked for permission. I explicitly stated only I was to have access. They said they do not let it happen. The locks are your own, but the flip closure is attached by 3/4 wood screws easily and possibly quite quietly could be opened and emptied with no one batting an eye. A kid could detach it with anything. They have "24 hour security" which means a guy lives on site. Does he/she have CCTV access? Probably not, nor would you want that job. Are there motion sensors? Not likely as sometimes the lights won't turn on and finding a switch in the straggly wandering corridors is impossible. They do not offer insurance. You have to sign forms saying all the things you will and won't do, but they are not liable if anything happens: theft, fire, water, vandals, pests etcSo despite all those complaints, its still 4/5 only because of the prices.
