Canada weather

[TonyinFla]

I just booked a cruise on June 15th to Canada. We live in Florida and have cruised to all the stops in the Carribean, but have never gone North. Anyone know what the weather is like, and what we should wear? I told my wife we'd need long pants, and maybe even sleeves; which we have none of. Down here in Venice nobody wears pants, I work at a bank and wear shorts. Anybody taken this in the past with input?

The weather will be ok in June. You may have some cool nights, but not cold. It's really a crap shoot with the weather up here in June. One day could be shorts weather and the next you need pants. Average high in June in Halifax, NS is 62, but is one of the "drier" months. I would definitely suggest having pants and a sweater with you on the cruise.

Enjoy!

We were there on the Victory in July a few years ago, had to have hooded sweatshirts at both stops, Halifax and St John. It was darn cool. I liked it just fine. Don't miss Peggy's cove.:)

Since I live in Maine, the weather in June is absolutely shorts and tee shirt weather, but since you are from warm sunny Florida, I am sure you will need long pants and long sleeves.

Yeah after reading up on the weather I might put on pants. I'm sure everyone would be thankful.

Bring a pair of pants and a sweatshirt just in case on your sea days.

 

You will also need a pair of pants for elegant night.

HHHmm sweat shirt where would I find one of those?

 

We like formal nights and I always wear a suit... with pants. :)

Why not plan on picking up sweatshirts on the ship. Nice souvenier. They are all correct. The weather up here is unpredictable at best. Be sure and bring long pants and a sweatshirt or light jacket. I am originally from Saint John, so I really do know what it can be like. Also if you are doing any sort of shore excursion that involves being in the woods, I would definately recommend insect repellant. Although we don't have to worry about malaria and have so far been untouched by west nile, still the black flies can be merciless in June. Have a great cruise.
