Home to the longest coastline in the world (125,570 miles touching the Atlantic, Pacific, and Arctic oceans), Canada offers a blend of adventure and learning experiences for teens interested in a summer program in the Land of Maple Syrup.
Canada’s vast landscapes provide the perfect backdrop for unforgettable adventures. Canoe or kayak across the turquoise waters of Lake Louise in Banff National Park, the Canadian Rockies as a backdrop. Explore the rolling hills and charming towns of Nova Scotia on a cycling adventure. Summer programs and camps in Canada often focus on outdoor activities, fostering a deep appreciation for nature and the environment.
The country offers summer programs focused on the wonders of science, inviting participants to explore geology and unravel the secrets of Earth’s history. These programs provide hands-on learning experiences like experimenting, data collection and analysis, and more. Attend a STEAM program at McGill University, Canada’s “Harvard of the North,” or at the University of Toronto (and catch a Blue Jays game while you’re there). Or participate in a cross-country debate program, traveling from Halifax to Vancouver while sharpening your critical thinking and public speaking skills.
Canada also welcomes international students with open arms. Summer programs in Canada offer a chance to combine academics with cultural immersion. Polish your French in Montreal, Quebec. Take a leadership program in British Columbia with students from other countries where you’ll gain valuable experience in teamwork, problem-solving, and initiative, and become an agent of positive change in your community.
