Naples
Located on the Gulf of Mexico on Florida's southwest coast, Naples is a city best known for its high-end shopping opportunities and golf courses, as well as miles of beaches with calm waters and fine sugar-white sand.
Halifax
The quaint and charming coastal town of Halifax, Nova Scotia has an interesting personality. While it caters to travelers from all over the world, it maintains the pace and lifestyle of a small town.

When planning your trip keep in mind that this city has a climate like other coastal cities. Summers are nice with the occasional humidity. Winters are mild, but still full of snow and wind. The best time of year to visit is most certainly the fall.
