Canada photo locations

Canada is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful countries on the planet with endless photographic opportunities. It is also one of the biggest, extending from the Atlantic to the Pacific and northward into the Arctic Ocean and covering 9.98 million square kilometres. It’s unlikely you’ll cover it all in one photography trip!

For cityscape lovers there are amazing must-see cities such as Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto and Montreal. Landscape photographers will be dazzled by incredible scenery such as the Canadian Rockies, lakes and national parks, as well as maritime areas such as Cape Breton on the East Coast. Canada also offers some great wildlife opportunities with its resident polar bears, grizzly bears, whales and of course the well-loved moose!

Since you’ll often be travelling vast distances between destinations, air travel is common and easy with many independent regional and local airlines focusing on small, remote regions, in addition to the national carrier, Air Canada. The country is also well-served by buses and trains. However driving in Canada is a spectacular experience and can be the most popular way to see this magnificent country.

Canada is known for being a welcoming, safe country to travel around. Visitors require an electronic travel authorisation (eTA) to enter Canada, which you can apply for through the official Canadian Government website.
