It is not the cheapest option on this list as it does require you to take a flight to get there, but Churchill Manitoba is the absolute perfect long weekend getaway. What it is best known for though is the abundance of polar bears, as well as the stunning Northern Lights that more often than not show their extraordinary colours. The fall is the best time to go if you want to see the polar bears and safaris in tundra vehicles. Visitors will have a chance to follow the polar bears in the comfort and safety of the tundra vehicles in the fall, as they wait for the ice to freeze along Hudson Bay. If you want to visit here for the weeked in the summertime, be prepared for the adventure of a lifetime when it comes to whales. Thousands of Beluga whales gather in the waters of the Churchill water in the spring time after the ice breaks and visitors can go out in large boats, zodiacs, kayaks, and even snorkel with them! This incredible town is worth a visit, anytime of the year.
