25 Unforgettable Things to Do in Newfoundland

• Canada / In the City / Outdoors

Visiting Newfoundland? Don’t miss these things to do.

Have you seen  Come From Away on Broadway ? Newfoundland and Labrador is the easternmost province of Canada, we didn’t know much about it until we watched the show in NY.

Though Newfoundland is filled with awe-inspiring landscapes, icebergs, and puffins, what truly makes them stand apart from any other place we visited is the people. Everyone was so friendly, warm, and welcoming, and even the visitors we encountered would not stop talking about the hospitality here. It was next level.

During our visit, we only got a chance to explore the Legendary Coasts of Eastern Newfoundland. There aren’t many places I want to revisit, but after a taste of Newfoundland, we know we have to go back.

1. Gros Morne National Park

Rocky Harbour, NL A0K 4N0, Canada,  map

Gros Morne National Park is known for beautiful fjords, towering mountains, sprawling beaches, forests, and cliffs. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and really deserves a guide of its own, but we’ll wait until we get a chance to visit ourselves. A few highlights you shouldn’t miss are:

• The Tablelands – a moon-like landscape with lots of hikes and views
• Western Brook Pond – take a cruise to see the cliffs from the water
• Lobster Cove Lighthouse – great whale watching and sunset spot

2. Cape Spear Lighthouse National Historic Site

Blackhead Road, Cape Spear, St. John’s, NL A1C 5H2, Canada,  map

This historic site is just South of St. John’s and has plenty of trails to explore and beautiful panoramic viewpoints. If you follow the trails down to the coast, you’ll also find the Easternmost Point of North America.

3. Signal Hill National Historic Site, St Johns

230 Signal Hill Rd, St. John’s, NL A1A 1B3, Canada,  map

This was the first stop we made after arriving in St. John’s. It was the perfect way to get a literal overview of the city. Signal Hill was once the site of the city’s oceanfront military defenses, but now there are hiking trails and a panoramic view of the city. You can also do a guided tour.

Pro Tip: If you climb Cabot Tower, you can get an even higher view. 

4. Quidi Vidi Village, St Johns

10 Maple View Rd, St. John’s, NL A1A 5W2, Canada,  map

This picturesque town lies along Quidi Vidi Lake. Walk the narrow streets or grab a drink at the Quidi Vidi Brewing Company. There are even trails that take you up on the hills to get a top down view.

Local Tip: Parking is very limited. We kept trying to find a ‘closer’ parking spot and wasted time driving around. Pull in to any spot you see and you can easily walk around the area.

5. Get Schreeched-In on George St, St John’s

George St, St. John’s, NL,  map

Newfoundland has a ceremony for come from aways (any non-Newfoundlanders) known as the “screech-in”. It usually involves a shot of screech (the local rum), a short recitation, and kissing a cod. George Street is full of bars and pubs where you can get screeched-in but be sure to check their schedules. Some require reservations and others don’t. Many bars only do them a certain time of day or week. 

Local Tip: We thought we could just drop in on one spontaneously, but that wasn’t the case. Since we were limited on time, we didn’t get a chance to get screeched-in. Try Trapper John’s or Christian’s Bar. If you miss it in St John’s, you can find plenty of places to get screeched, but it might require some planning ahead.

6. The Rooms

9 Bonaventure Ave, St. John’s, NL A1C 5P9, Canada,  map

Since we’re not huge museum people, we mainly wanted to visit for the views from the top of the building. The views did not disappoint, but we also ended up spending a couple of hours checking out all the exhibits. The Rooms art gallery and museum gives you more natural and cultural history of the area, and it has a few fun interactive areas too.

7. Jellybean Row, St Johns

1-245 Duckworth St, St. John’s, NL A1C 1G8, Canada,  map

The brightly colored homes in St John’s are better known as Jellybean Row. We initially thought it was just a specific set of houses, but it actually covers multiple streets, so you can wander around to find the area you love most.

Local Tip: Take a photography tour with Moe from  Far East Photography Tours  since he knows all the best spots. After visiting Jellybean Row, he also took us to other scenic spots only a local photographer would know.

8. Town of Dildo

Dildo, Newfoundland and Labrador, A0B 1P0,  map

Yes, Dildo. That’s the name of the town. It recently received a lot of attention after Jimmy Kimmel became an honorary mayor. He put up ‘hollywood-style’ Dildo sign on the hills that people stop by to take photos of. You can also stop by the popular Dildo Brewing & Museum, go whale watching or rent a dory boat to get a view from the water.

Local Tip: The  Dildo Boathouse Inn  was the perfect home base in Dildo. Dennis and Paula make you feel like home and the rooms are beautiful. It was our favorite place to stay during our trip.

9. Whale Watching with Sea of Whales Adventure

12 Ash’s Ln, Trinity, NL A0C 2S0, Canada,  map

This was hands down the best whale watching trip we’ve been on. We were over whale watching, but this trip made us understand why people go whale watching again.

Since we visited on the late end of whale watching season, we were initially reluctant to go. Plus, we’ve been on plenty of boat trips where it’s primarily waiting around for hours for an anti-climactic spotting of a whale fin.

These guys from Sea of Whales Adventure know what they’re doing. With 7 different launching points on the Bonavista Peninsula, they are able to launch closest to where whales have been last active. During our trip, we hung out with 2 curious humpback whales, saw a whale breach for the first time, and witnessed a crazy blue fin tuna feeding frenzy.

10. East Coast Trail

Cape Broyle, NL A0A 1P0, Canada,  map

Whether you want to do just a small portion of it or try to conquer the entire 336 km trail, the East Coast Trail is a great way to see Newfoundland. The developed trail comprises of 25 wilderness paths and interacts with over 30 communities.

Some of the highlights you can find on the trail are:

• The Spout (wave-driven geyser)
• 50-meter suspension bridge at La Manche
• Abandoned coastal settlements
• 30 historic communities
• Colony of Avalon archaeological dig at Ferryland
• 8 historic lighthouses
• 3 Ecological Reserves

Local Tip: Their website has a great feature where you can narrow down which paths you want to explore based on difficulty.

Gander, Newfoundland and Labrador Canada,  map

This small town in northeastern Newfoundland that was made famous by the  Broadway musical  Come From Away . The story revolves around the planes that were rerouted here during 9/11 and how the community stepped up to welcome people from all over the world. Even for the most jaded New Yorker, it made you believe in humanity again.

Also, can you believe Gander International Airport also used to be the world’s busiest airport? Before the age of jets, planes would have to refuel here.

The North Atlantic Aviation Museum is also a popular stop to check out how Newfoundland contributed to WWII.

12. Skerwink Trail, Port Rexton

Port Rexton, NL A0C 2H0, Canada,  map

I know East Coast Trail is famous, but this was our favorite day hike during our trip. The 4.7 km loop takes you to beautiful viewpoints of rugged coast, panoramic views, and a chance to see whales. Maybe it was the whales, but the hike was epic!

13. Iceberg Alley

Twillingate, Newfoundland and Labrador Canada,  map

Newfoundland is one of the best places in the world to see icebergs. Every spring, icebergs of all shapes, sizes, and colors float by and bring in visitors to see them.

Iceberg Alley runs from the coast of Labrador to the southeast coast of Newfoundland (basically the entire coast is a prime spot for icebergs). Here are a few popular spots you can access by road:

• Battle Harbour
• Point Amour
• St. Anthony
• Twillingate
• Fogo Island
• Change Islands

Local Tip: IcebergFinder.com is the go-to resource to track icebergs each season.

14. Cape Bonavista Lighthouse, Bonavista

PW27+HV Bonavista, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada,  map

Bonavista Lighthouse is a candy cane colored lighthouse and was definitely worth the detour. It’s also one of two easy-to-see puffin colonies. All you have to do is head towards the back of the lighthouse and you’ll see them on a giant rock to the right just off the coast. There are also a bunch of trails following the coast around the lighthouse. 

Local Tip: These puffins are much farther though, so bring your longest telephoto lens ( this is the one we use) .

15. Town of Bonavista

Bonavista, Newfoundland and Labrador Canada,  map

We loved exploring the town of Bonavista! You can check out the shops, enjoy a beach boil-up, or rent bikes and go for a picnic. Some highlights from our trip:

• Beach Boil Up with Bonavista Adventure Tours
• Picnic Lunch with Bonavista Bicycle Picnics and Cafe
• Newfoundland Mockbeggar Plantation
• Ryan Premises National Historic Site
• East Coast Glow to pick up souvenirs for friends. Their soaps are made from foraged ingredients and iceberg water.

16. Dungeon Provincial Park, Bonavista

ROUTE 238, Bonavista, NL A0C 1B0, Canada,  map

If you’re in Bonavista, stop by the Dungeon Provincial Par to check out a large collapsed sea cave with a natural archway. Also, be sure to explore the surrounding area. We almost missed amazing photo ops just a few minutes away from the sea cave.

Pro Tip: We went when they had the worst light (high noon), which made the Dungeon extremely challenging to shoot.

17. Terra Nova National Park

Trans-Canada Hwy Glovertown, Traytown, NL A0G 4K0, Canada,  map

This is Canada’s easternmost national park. Camp by the sea in Southwest Arm, play on the sandy beaches of Sandy Pond, or kayak as you look for wildlife and icebergs.

The Visitor Centre is a great place to start to get all the info you need.

18. L’anse Aux Meadows National Historic Site, St Lunaire-Griquet

Division No. 9, Subd. D, NL A0K 2X0, Canada,  map

This UNESCO World Heritage Site is the only authenticated Norse site in North America. There’s proof that Leif Erickson and other Norse explorers settled here. Learn more about the history and get a glimpse of how they lived.

Be sure to explore Norstead, a recreated Viking port of trade. You can learn to throw an axe, spin yard, or even take a pottery class. They also have a ship that you can explore.

19. Mistaken Point Ecological Reserve

NL-10, Portugal Cove South, NL A0A 4B0, Canada,  map

This is the newest UNESCO World Heritage Site and was designated because it’s one of the most significant fossil sites in the world. There are fossils of the oldest, large complex multicellular life-forms found anywhere on Earth, known as Ediacara biota. They can be found in other parts of the world, but the sheer number and variety found at Mistaken Point is significant.

20. Elliston Puffin SIte and Root Cellars

Maberly Rd, Elliston, NL A0C 1W0, Canada,  map

Elliston has the closest land views of puffins in North America. We arrived just before sunrise and had the whole place to ourselves along with thousands of puffins. There are also Root Cellars that you can explore on the way to the viewing site.

Local Tip: Sunrise is the best time to go to avoid crowds and we’re told that if you stay still enough, puffins sometimes land near you (we didn’t have any luck with it).

21. Klondike Trail to SPillar’s Cove, Elliston

1N0, Bonavista Bay Hwy, Elliston, NL A0C 1N0, Canada,  map

Head over to the Klondike Trail to see the beautiful landscape of Spillars Cove. It’s roughly 1.3m each way and there is a large chimney type rock structure jutting out of the ocean.

Local Tip: We didn’t know where the trail started and ended up driving most of the trail until we felt like the car couldn’t handle it any more. Turns out you don’t really have to hike if you don’t want.

22. Red Bay National Historic Site, Labrador

Red Bay, NL A0K 4K0, Canada,  map

This used to be a major whale port where the Basques made whale oil. It was actually the first large-scale whale oil production in the world. Today, you can explore the old whaling town and UNESCO World Heritage Site as you learn more about its history. Be sure to stop by the interpretation centre to see the type of boats they used to harpoon the giant beasts.

23. Cape St Mary’s Ecological Reserve

Saint Bride’s, NL A0B 2Z0, Canada,  map

This ecological reserve is home to the most accessible seabird colony in North America so it is popular amongst birders. You’ll find thousands of gulls, razorbills, black-legged kittiwakes, northern gannets, and cormorants. Beyond the birds, there are trails to explore along the dramatic coastline.

24. Captain James Cook Historic Site, Corner Brook

Mayfair Ave, Corner Brook, NL A2H 6M7, Canada,  map

Explore the town of Corner Brook and see the statue of the famous British explorer, Captain James Cook. The historic site also gives you a great view of the city and the Blomidon Mountains. While you’re in town, you can also check out the Stream Trail Network, Corner Brook Caves, and the Corner Brook Museum & Archives.

25. Fogo Island

Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada,  map

Head to Fogo Island to explore the largest offshore island of Newfoundland and Labrador. Many of the homes, stages, and stores have been unchanged for decades and Fogo has become a haven for artists from around the world. Check out the Great Auk Sculpture, Fogo Island, Tilting, and Brimstone Head Park.

13 Top-Rated Tourist Attractions in Newfoundland and Labrador

Written by Chloë Ernst Updated Sep 24, 2021

The island of Newfoundland is the most easterly part of Canada, while the vast region of Labrador is largely inaccessible. Newfoundland and Labrador's varied landscape was shaped by the ice ages, leaving a ragged coastline of deep fjords and high coastal cliffs that plunge into the sea. Inland are miles and miles of moorland and forest studded by lakes and inhabited by moose and herds of caribou.

Because of its location close to the "Grand Banks," some of the world's richest fishing grounds, the island's main livelihood was cod fishing until foreign factory ships so depleted the cod population and habitat that the Canadian government suspended fishing.

The capital city of St. John's (not to be confused with the city of Saint John in New Brunswick), around which about a fifth of Newfoundland's population lives, is a lively town with a charming provincial feel to it. All around the island's irregular coast are towns and remote former fishing villages that attract tourists with their breathtaking scenery, sea life, and exceptional birding sites.

Miles and miles of trails follow the magnificent coast, and historic sites to tour include the first known Viking settlement, landing sites of early European explorers, landmarks of early flight pioneers, and tangible relics of prehistoric populations. To pronounce the names like a native, accent the last syllables, as in NewfoundLAND and LabraDOR.

Plan your next great north adventure with our list of the top tourist attractions in Newfoundland and Labrador.

1. Gros Morne National Park

2. l'anse aux meadows national historic site, 3. signal hill national historic site, 4. the rooms, 5. bonavista peninsula, 6. cape spear lighthouse national historic site, 7. torngat mountains national park, 8. puffin and whale cruises in witless bay, 9. cape st. mary's ecological reserve, 10. twillingate and fogo island, 11. castle hill national historic site, 12. terra nova national park, 13. red bay national historic site, map of tourist attractions in newfoundland and labrador.

Gros Morne National Park is undoubtedly one of the most impressive natural features in eastern Canada, a magnificent landscape of fjords and mountains, partly covered with dense forest. Unique wildlife and plant life has adapted to the cold conditions, which are found scarcely anywhere else so far south.

This is one of Newfoundland's most popular attractions, with hiking trails and sightseeing boat excursions in the dramatic landlocked fjord at Western Brook Pond . Other popular things to do here include rock-climbing, boating, swimming, camping, and fishing.

Within the national park, the Long Range Mountains are among the oldest mountains on earth and have been shaped by advancing ice and the forces of erosion. Gros Morne National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site , largely for its unique geological phenomena.

At Tablelands, a large piece of the earth's mantle was thrust to the surface by colliding tectonic plates, exposing a piece of earth that is elsewhere more than a mile beneath the surface. At Greenpoint, ancient layers of solidified seabed have been thrust into vertical cliffs, exposing fossil sequences of different eras.

Official site: http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/pn-np/nl/grosmorne/index.aspx

L'Anse aux Meadows National Historic Site, a green plain with some moorland, lies at the northern tip of Newfoundland's Great Northern Peninsula . Here were discovered six houses made of grass sods, probably built by the Vikings around the year 1,000 and rediscovered in 1962. It is the oldest known European settlement in North America and, to date, is the only authentic trace of Viking settlement in the New World. It is probably the "Vinland" discovered by Leif Erikson.

The historic site has a reconstructed long house, workshop, and stable where costumed interpreters demonstrate age-old tasks and answer questions. A second Viking attraction on the Great Northern Peninsula is Norstead , a living-history museum with a slightly livelier feel and more Viking-style buildings.

The Viking Trail is a signposted route that takes tourists the length of Newfoundland's Northern Peninsula, from Gros Morne to L'Anse aux Meadows and across the Strait of Belle Isle into Labrador. Almost its entire route is along the western shore overlooking the strait, an expanse of sea that is known as Iceberg Alley .

In the spring and summer, it is not at all unusual to see both icebergs and whales from the road, often at the same time. On its way up the coast, the Viking Trail passes a number of attractions, including the rock formations of Arches Provincial Park and the aboriginal burial ground of Port au Choix National Historic Site , one of the richest archaeological finds in North America.

Official site: http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/lhn-nhs/nl/meadows/index.aspx

Atop its namesake hill, Signal Hill National Historic Site overlooks the Atlantic Ocean, St. John's harbor, and the small historic downtown. In 1901, Guglielmo Marconi received the first transatlantic wireless signal here. The landmark Cabot Tower commemorates the 400th anniversary of John Cabot's voyage.

Hiking trails lead to the fortifications at the Queen's Battery Barracks and along the perilous cliffs, including spectacular but difficult North Head Trail down to Battery Road.

Official site: http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/lhn-nhs/nl/signalhill/index.aspx

Dominating the hilltop in sharp contrast to the neighboring 19th-century Romanesque Revival-style Catholic Basilica, St. John's newest museum is called The Rooms and includes several different collections divided by subject. Sections include wildlife and natural history, aboriginal finds, contemporary art, and historical and cultural exhibits that give a good picture of both Newfoundland and Labrador. The museum has a popular restaurant and some of the best views over the city and Signal Hill.

Address: 9 Bonaventure Ave, St. John's, Newfoundland

Official site: https://www.therooms.ca/

The best-known peninsula in Newfoundland is Bonavista, where John Cabot is thought to have sighted the "New World" for the first time in 1497. At Cape Bonavista, stands a statue of Cabot, and visitors can watch for whales, puffins, and icebergs along the coast. The old lighthouse, a provincial historic site, dates from 1843 and was restored around 1870. Picturesque Trinity is an old fishing and trading town, where the historical character has been well preserved.

Also a fishing town, Bonavista was first used by European fishing fleets back in the 16th century. Ryan Premises National Historic Site was opened in 1997. This was originally the headquarters for James Ryan Ltd, a company that began operations in 1869 trading salted fish.

Cape Spear Lighthouse National Historic Site, 11 kilometers south of St. John's, is the most easterly point in North America, and has Newfoundland's oldest lighthouse. It is a popular, if chilly, spot to watch the sunrise as well as sight whales, seabirds, and icebergs.

Dating from 1835, the light station was in operation until 1955 and is now an interesting museum. In addition, there are massive half-ruined gun emplacements from the Second World War, including the barrels of two guns each weighing 30 tons and having a range of 13 kilometers.

Official site: http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/lhn-nhs/nl/spear/index.aspx

Torngat Mountains National Park occupies the northernmost tip of Newfoundland and Labrador, facing east toward Greenland . A trip to this remote area is not for the faint of heart, but is tremendously rewarding for those willing to truly travel off the beaten path. This national park has no roads and no signage, and can only safely be visited by arrangement with park officials at the Torgnat Mountains Basecamp and Research Station.

The first thing to strike most visitors is the landscape, dramatic in its grand scope and vastness. The coastline is jagged, with fjords filled with crisp blue water, and the mountains inland are among Canada's tallest peaks. Iceberg viewing is one of the most popular activities here along "iceberg alley," with massive chunks of glacial ice visible from both land and sea. Although icebergs can be spotted as far south as the island of Newfoundland, the season for seeing them is much longer in these far-north reaches.

Boat tours are one of the best ways to view the fjords and icebergs, but are also the best way to admire the astounding number of whales that make the coastal waters home each summer between May and September. This is where you will find the world's biggest group of humpback whales , and plentiful pods of other species, including pilot whales, sperm whales, orca, sperm whales, and minke. Tourists will also spot dolphins and harbor porpoise, and polar bears can be found swimming in the water along the coast and roaming the vast landscape.

Bird-watchers will appreciate the 350 species of fowl that call the area home, including a population of over 800 bald eagles and plentiful other birds of prey like owls, falcons, osprey, and hawks. Other bird species include flocks of millions of storm-petrels, thousands of gannets, and murres.

One of the most special parts of visiting this unique park is the opportunity to learn about Inuit and culture. The parkland is owned by the Inuit peoples, and they welcome visitors to learn more about their heritage through museums, historic sites, festivals, and events. Inuit guides also conduct hiking tours, as well as kayak and raft excursions and fishing trips.

Boat cruises to the islands, where puffins nest and to observe the whales that frequent the Witless Bay Ecological Reserve leave from the town of Bay Bulls, south of St. John's. Whales follow the icebergs that are also found in the bay, and it is not unusual to see icebergs, whales, and puffins, as well as other sea birds on a single cruise.

The four islands of the reserve are the nesting sites for more than 260,000 pairs of puffins, North America's largest Atlantic puffin colony. This is also the world's second-largest Leach's storm-petrel colony, consisting of more than 620,000 pairs that nest here, and you will almost certainly see some of the thousands of black-legged kittiwakes and common murres that spend the summer here.

Puffins are the province's official bird, and tour boats give a close-up view of these appealing birds and their nesting sites during the late spring and summer.

There are major colonies of seabirds at Cape St. Mary's, including about 24,000 northern gannet. The birds are a spectacular sight, whether nesting on the rocks or dive-bombing the ocean for a meal. Other seabird species at the cliff-side reserve include black-legged kittiwake, common murre, razorbill, and great cormorant.

The traditional Newfoundland fishing village of Twillingate is located on the northern coast, known as the Kittiwake coast, and it is a good place to visit to experience local village life. Twillingate was originally settled in 1738 and known as Toulinguet. Near Twillingate is the Long Point Lighthouse, built in 1889. It has a range of 40 kilometers and is an excellent location to watch for whales and icebergs.

Small museums and seafood restaurants make the community an interesting stop for tourists; don't miss the Twillingate Museum & Crafts Shop for a selection of local art and handwork. This is also a popular starting port for iceberg cruises .

Nearby Fogo Island is a holdout from the days of fishing outports. The island culture and an old Irish dialect are distinct from that on the main island of Newfoundland. In recent years, the addition of an expansive artist retreat and luxury hotel have brought attention and visitors to this coastal island.

Castle Hill National Historic Site is between Highway 100 and Placentia , where one of the two ferry routes to Nova Scotia begins and ends. It is the site of historic English and French fortifications, and an interpretive center. The French founded the colony of "Plaisance" in 1662 and built Fort Royal in 1693. But only 20 years later they handed over the strategic location to the British, who renamed it Castle Hill. There is a magnificent view over Placentia Bay .

Official site: http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/lhn-nhs/nl/castlehill/index.aspx

Terra Nova National Park is known for its fjords and quiet coastline. In spring, icebergs drift by, and in summer, kayakers and canoeists take to the waters, while families fill the park campgrounds. Winter offers cross-country skiing opportunities.

Just north of the national park, Salvage is a small fishing community with the classic Newfoundland charm of waterfront fishing sheds, tilting wharves, and rocky headlands.

Official site: http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/pn-np/nl/terranova/index.aspx

The icy-cold Labrador current flows through the 17 kilometer-wide Strait of Belle Isle , which separates Labrador from Newfoundland, and into the Gulf of St. Lawrence . Since the 16th century, southern Labrador had been the summer fishing grounds of fishermen and whalers arriving from Europe and Newfoundland.

At Red Bay National Historic Site , the remains of Basque (Spanish) whaling boats have been recovered. An interpretive center pieces together the historical clues.

Ten of the Best Places to Visit in Newfoundland and Labrador

By Adventure Canada | July 05, 2022

1. St. John’s

As the provincial capital and an easy access point for many visitors, don’t skip out on your chance to explore St. John’s to its fullest. This colourful city boasts a flourishing arts scene , gourmet restaurants, great outdoor activities, and fun local haunts . The must-sees and must-dos include hiking up to Signal Hill, paying a visit to the Basilica of St. John the Baptist, taking in an exhibit at The Rooms art gallery and museum, visiting the Johnson GEO centre, or simply strolling the streets of the old downtown.

2. Torngat Mountains National Park

Along the upper reaches of northern Labrador, Torngat Mountains National Park is a gem—but it’s also one of the least visited parts of the country. If you’re willing to venture off the beaten path, plenty of treasures await you, including the chance to witness both polar and black bears , incredible Inuit living history, and stunning geology—the tallest mountains in mainland Canada east of the Rockies live here.

3. L’Anse aux Meadows

Step back in time to captivating L’Anse aux Meadows , a UNESCO World Heritage Site and National Historic Site of Canada. This is the only confirmed Norse archaeological site in North America, and you can soak up fascinating Viking history as you wander through the immersive, living museum. Stop in at the visitors’ centre before you head for the reconstructed sod buildings and watch the professional reenactors demonstrate what life was like here a millennium ago.

Just one of dozens of Newfoundland communities brimming with small-town charm, picturesque Conche is not to be missed. Nestled along Newfoundland’s French Coast , the main attraction is found in the town’s interpretation centre: a 227-foot hand-stitched tapestry illustrating the region’s history. If you’re lucky enough to be invited over for a scoff and a scuff by one of the locals, don’t miss the chance. Looking for more spots with the same sweet vibe? Try Trinity Bight along the Bonavista Peninsula or maybe even out-of-the-way Francois (pronounced “Fran-sway”) on the south shore.

5. Gros Morne National Park

Get ready for the hike of your life at Gros Morne —both a national park and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This is one of few places on the planet that geologists can study Earth’s upper mantle at its surface, but even if you’re not a rock lover, you’ll love what this park has to offer. There’s babbling brooks, rushing waterfalls, photogenic tuckamore trees, and more. The nearby towns of Trout River and Woody Point are sure to delight you, too.

If you’re a history buff, you won’t want to miss fascinating Red Bay in Labrador, just across the Strait of Belle Isle. Visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site and National Historic Site to learn more about the intrepid Basque mariners who first journeyed here circa 1520, lured by the region’s plentiful opportunities for whaling . This significant cultural connection was nearly lost until the 1970s, when historian Selma Barkham re-discovered archival documents linking the Basques to Terra Nova (Newfoundland and Labrador).

7. Fogo Island

Joe Batt’s Arm is home to the sleek, Scandinavian-inspired Fogo Island Inn, known the world over by those who love a luxurious stay and a gourmet meal . Go for a guided walk with the island’s visiting geologist-in-residence, take an art workshop, or get your binoculars ready for spotting birds and whales. You could also hike the trail to Brimstone Head, claimed to be one of the literal four corners of the world by the Flat Earth Society.

8. Wunderstrands

This stretch of sandy beach is as close as Labrador’s rugged coastline gets to a tropical paradise, and on a clear blue day you might almost imagine you’ve been transported to another latitude. Wiggle your toes in the chilly seawater, search for wildlife amongst the east coast boreal forest, and admire the stunning landscape, part of the Akami-Uapishkᵁ-KakKasuak-Mealy Mountains National Park Reserve. The name Wunderstrands comes from the Viking sagas, but it’s also known locally as Porcupine Strand.

9. Terra Nova National Park

Enjoy a hike or a paddle at Canada’s easternmost national park for a rugged backcountry experience just a couple hours’ drive from St. John’s. Along with the extensive trail system and craggy coastline, the park also hosts an open-air theatre nestled amongst the lush forest. Comb the beaches to find hermit crabs, starfish, and other tidewater wonders, or bring your binoculars for excellent terrestrial and avian wildlife spotting.

10. Battle Harbour

Take an intrepid journey to Battle Harbour, a winding nine-mile boat ride from the nearest community of Mary's Harbour. Now operated by the Battle Harbour Historic Trust, this living museum was a bustling fishery, until the 1992 cod moratorium shuttered the once-thriving hub. The charming accommodations, delicious restaurant, and beautiful scenery are a welcome reward for those willing to make the journey to learn more about this quintessential history of Newfoundland and Labrador.

Bonus: Saint-Pierre and Miquelon

Did you know you can visit France without ever leaving North America? Though technically not part of the province, Saint-Pierre and Miquelon , an official territory of the French Republic, is an easy ferry ride away from Fortune, Newfoundland. Enjoy some fresh French cheese, baguette, or chocolate croissants while you stroll the colourful city streets and soak up this delightful slice of Europe on the western coast of the Atlantic.

7 STUNNING Places to Visit in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada

This post contains product affiliate links. These are mainly on items/hotels/tours that I personally endorse & love. I may earn a small commission if you make a purchase, but at no extra cost to you.

Looking for the best places to visit in Newfoundland and Labrador? From exploring St. John’s to seeing Bonavista, this is where to go in Atlantic Canada!

Right, it’s time to plan another amazing adventure, this time to somewhere I’ve never been before. One place that’s really caught my eye is Newfoundland and Labrador in Canada. And you’re about to see why in this post.

Every year for the past five years I’ve visited Canada . It’s by far one of my favourite countries in the world and a place I just love exploring, so this year one of the first places I plan on visiting is Newfoundland and Labrador in Atlantic Canada. I’ve never been to the east coast of Canada before and I’ve heard so many amazing things about it, so it’s about time I went there.

Newfoundland and Labrador is famous for its rocky coastline with colourful houses dotted all along it, for its wildlife of humpback whales swimming in the deep blue ocean, and for jaw-dropping views wherever you look.

Also, this is one of the best places in the world to see icebergs floating past. I’ve seen icebergs before in Greenland , and I promise you it’s well worth visiting somewhere when these giants are around. They just take your breath away.

Like with most places in Atlantic Canada, there is so much space here. That means it’s perfect for a post lockdown break where you can spend lots of time outdoors.

Even though I haven’t been yet, I thought I’d come up with a Newfoundland and Labrador itinerary for a future trip. I always love planning a trip well in advanced (I came up with this one from newfoundlandandlabrador.com ), and I wanted to share some of the best places to visit in Newfoundland and Labrador to give you a bit of wanderlust.

I’ve featured quite a few places here which are hundreds of miles apart, so even though you can’t do them all on one trip, it should give you an idea of what you can do in Newfoundland and Labrador as an overview.

If you’re like me and are starting to plan your holidays, this is a great place to start.  Hopefully you’ll be inspired to visit somewhere very different in Canada!

Where is Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada?

Newfoundland and Labrador is part of Atlantic Canada . This is a region comprising of four provinces located on the Atlantic coast: the three provinces of the Maritimes – New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island – and the easternmost province of Newfoundland and Labrador.

The province is essentially split into two. Situated in the country’s Atlantic region, it is composed of the island of Newfoundland and the continental region of Labrador to the northwest.

On the island of Newfoundland you’ll find the popular places of St. John’s and Bonavista, while in Labrador you’ll find places like Battle Harbour and Torngat Mountains National Park.

As I’ve already mentioned, if you’re looking for space, you’ll find it here.

There are just over half a million people living in Newfoundland and Labrador in are area of 405,000 square kilometres. To give that some context, Germany with a population of 83 million people are living in an area around the same size. That’s bonkers, isn’t it!?

Newfoundland and Labrador is characterised as having this rocky coastline making it one of the top seaside destinations in Canada. With more than 18,000 miles of coastline, there’s such a special connection to the ocean here. When you see pictures of the coast, it’s easy to understand why.

When is the best time to visit Newfoundland and Labrador?

This really depends on the type of holiday you’re looking for. Weather wise, the best time to visit Newfoundland and Labrador is from July to mid-September. Even though temperatures will rarely get above 30 o C, the weather will be really bright and calm. Also, because Newfoundland and Labrador is so far north, you get really long daylight hours during the summer which is a mega bonus too.

Mid-June to mid-August are also the best time for wildlife. This is when you can go on a whale watching tour and see humpback whales migrating. There are a number of whale watching tour companies to book with during the summer months. Looking around, this is one of the best ones I’ve found which comes highly recommended.

Summer is also when you can see puffins too. I always think puffins are so adorable, so they’re well worth seeing when you’re here if you can.

Another season that might interest you is iceberg season. This is usually from the end of May until the end of June where icebergs float past the island of Newfoundland.

Yes, this is really a season here in Canada! It’s hard describing how beautiful icebergs are, but they really are. For me, this would be such a good time to visit this region in Canada.

As I said before, I know it’s hard choosing when to visit somewhere when there’s so much to see and do. All the more reason to plan on coming back here again in the future!

Where to go in Newfoundland and Labrador

St. john’s.

Being the provincial capital, St. John’s is the place where most people start their Newfoundland and Labrador itinerary.

One word that would describe St. John’s is colourful. No matter where you look there are these brightly coloured houses dotted all over the place making the town a multicoloured rainbow. To me it symbolises how bright and happy this part of Canada is.

Here’s a fun fact for your next travel quiz . St. John’s is actually the oldest city/town in North America. The earliest record of St. John’s dates back all the way to 1519 – that means there’s a huge amount of history here for all you history buffs.

One of the top places to hang out is down by the harbour. Here you’ll get a sense of what St. John’s is all about with fishing schooners constantly coming and going with the catch of the day.

Also, if you’re a foodie like me, then you’ll absolutely love St. John’s. Everyone I’ve spoken to who has visited St. John’s has said it’s an amazing foodie destination with some incredible restaurants to eat at. The main dish you’ll see everywhere is lobster and cod. If you’re looking for something a little more adventurous apparently cod tongue is a popular dish – that’s a new one on me!

Gros Morne National Park

When you see pictures of Gros Morne National Park , it’s hard not to compare it to the fjords of Norway or the mountains of New Zealand, yet it’s a place hardly anyone knows about. Just imagine beautiful river valleys running between massive, striking cliffs either side. Well, that’s what it’s like here.

Located to the north of Newfoundland, Gros Morne National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, largely for its unique geological phenomena. At Tablelands, a huge piece of the earth’s mantle was exposed by colliding tectonic plates. This is the only place on earth were you can see the earth’s mantle like this; it’s like looking into the open wound of the world.

Gros Morne National Park is a place best explored by foot. The hiking and camping here is some of the best in Canada, especially when you’re overlooking the water. There are lots of marked trails and campsites so it’s quite easy exploring it independently.

Whether you’re here for a short day hike or a multiday camping trip, Gros Morne National Park is one of the top places to visit in Newfoundland and Labrador.

As the name suggests, Bonavista has one of the most beautiful views in Atlantic Canada.

It’s believed that this is the spot where Italian explorer Giovanni Caboto (John Cabot) first landed in the Americas in 1497. When he landed and saw the coastline, he apparently said “O buono vista!” (O happy sight) and the name has lived on ever since.

Today, Bonavista is a small coastal fishing town that’s as pretty as a picture. As with everywhere in Newfoundland and Labrador, the seafood is on the next level here. With the views of the bay, it’s not surprising. Everything tastes incredible when you’re in a place as beautiful as this.

From the top of the town’s 19th-century lighthouse painted like a candy cane, visitors can see ancient icebergs floating in the waters off the rocky coast. If you’re lucky you might even see some whales migrating during the summer months too.

L’Anse aux Meadows National Historic Site

Welcome to Viking territory. Long before the Europeans first settled in Canada, Newfoundland and Labrador was visited by Vikings. At L’Anse aux Meadows National Historic Site , you can see the remains of one of their ancient settlements.

Dating all the way back to the 11 th century, the excavated wood-framed huts and peat-turfed buildings are similar to the ones I saw in Greenland . It’s hard imagining people living somewhere so remote and seemingly inhospitable, but this historical site really brings it to life.

One of the top things to do at L’Anse aux Meadows National Historic Site is to live like a Viking for a day. You can see 1,000-year-old artifacts, explore the stunning coastline, and learn all about the history of the Vikings.

This is thought to be one of the only settlements Vikings had in the New World, so historically it’s very significant. Just another thing for your Newfoundland and Labrador itinerary!

Twillingate

The final place I would absolutely love to visit on my Newfoundland and Labrador itinerary is Twillingate. A bit like Bonavista, Twillingate is another coast fishing village that epitomises everything great about Atlantic Canada.

Nearby Fogo Island is a great place to visit too. This place has its own culture where locals speak an old Irish dialect that’s unlike anything else spoken elsewhere in Atlantic Canada.

If you time your trip to the last week of July, you can stop by the Fish, Fun and Folk Festival for music, seafood, folk tales and so much more. There is such a sense of community in Newfoundland and Labrador, and you won’t find it stronger than in Twillingate.

Battle Harbour

Another place I would absolutely love to visit is Battle Harbour . As they say on their website, there’s off the map, then there’s this place.

Just off the coast of Labrador, Battle Harbour is a summer fishing station where the pace of life is super slow (just the way I like it).

Battle Harbour is situated on Battle Island, which is a part of a larger group of islands that stretches across the nine mile journey from Mary’s Harbour to the settlement.

The area delivers everything you’d expect from a centuries-old outport: rugged coastline, abandoned settlements, seasonal icebergs, and breathtaking views.

One of the best things to do here is talk to the local residents who still call the island home. They are part of the living history of the harbour and they love to share their stories to tourists who visit.

Torngat Mountains National Park

This is a place that’s at the very top of my Newfoundland and Labrador itinerary.

Located at the north of Labrador, Torngat Mountains National Park is an epic landscape that’s just made for hiking and exploring. In terms of extreme adventure, it’s right up there.

There are no roads, no signs, no campgrounds, or anything hospitably human. Basically, civilisation isn’t really a thing here. What you get instead is the raw rugged beauty that you can’t find anywhere else. This is pure nature that hasn’t changed for millions of years.

One of the best ways of experiencing Torngat Mountains National Park is on a multi-day hiking tour. With a tour guide you’ll learn all about where the Inuit hunt, fish, and travel just as their predecessors did. You also get to camp in this pristine wilderness.

With some of Canada’s highest peaks to be conquered, you can see why it’s a place I would love. For me, this is nature at its finest.

So there you have it, that’s where to go in Newfoundland and Labrador. As I said, Canada is one of my favourite countries in the world and I can’t wait to go back there again.

As this is going to be a year of travels for me, this place is definitely at the top of my list. Hopefully you can see why I want to go so much!

Let me know in the comments below if you’re planning any trips to Canada this year. If there’s anything I can help with then just let me know.

This blog post is in association with Newfoundland and Labrador promoting some of the best things to do in Atlantic Canada . As always, all view and opinions are my own.

Newfoundland And Labrador's 12 Most Beautiful Places

Newfoundland & Labrador are the stuff that adventure travelers’ dreams are made of: Warm-hearted locals, untamed landscapes, rare wildlife, and rich history. Encompassing Canada ’s easternmost point, this province was the area where Europeans first made contact with the New World and, amazingly, much of this beguiling region feels like it has changed little since that time. Here are a few of the most stunning places in Newfoundland & Labrador that you need to see.

Natural Feature

It’s believed that Bonavista is the spot where Italian explorer Giovanni Caboto (John Cabot) first landed in the Americas in 1497. This pretty town takes its name from the words Caboto is said to have exclaimed when he first saw the rugged coastline, “O buono vista!” (Oh happy sight!) From the top of the town’s 19th-century lighthouse, visitors can see ten thousand-year-old icebergs floating in the waters off the rocky coast. The area is a wonderful place for wildlife-watching, with puffin nesting grounds found nearby the lighthouse, as well as whales and seabirds often visible from the shoreline.

Gros Morne National Park

Gros Morne National Park comprises 1,805 square kilometers of hauntingly beautiful natural scenery. Dotted with windswept beaches, tumbling fjords, and imposing mountains, the park is a perfect spot for camping, hiking, wildlife-viewing and kayaking. The park is carved into northern and southern sections by Bonne Bay. The southern area is home to the Tablelands , a rare stretch of exposed mantle rock that earned the park its UNESCO World Heritage status. The northern area of the park encompasses a series of challenging trails running through dwarf forests, as well as to the summit of Gros Morne Mountain which is the second highest peak in Newfoundland.

Cape St. Mary’s Ecological Reserve

Set on the Avalon Peninsula, Cape St. Mary’s Ecological Reserve is one of North America’s most accessible bird colonies. The reserve is home to dozens of different bird species, ranging from black-legged kittiwakes to great cormorants. Covered with alpine wildflowers and earthy mosses, the reserve is a wonderful place for pleasant nature walks or vigorous hikes. Some of the cape’s most impressive scenery can be found by following the trail leading to Bird Rock. This easy 1-kilometer path winds past lush fields filled with grazing sheep to reach a dramatic cliff face home to over 70,000 birds.

Brigus’ stone walls, fertile gardens, and historic buildings display the city’s deep connection with its English, Irish and Welsh heritage. Overlooking the coast, the town’s winding lanes slope up gently to meet lush cliffs. With a compact layout and Victorian houses lining the old part of town, Brigus is a lovely place to go for a stroll. The town is particularly charming during its famous Blueberry Festival , which takes place in mid-August. Attracting thousands of visitors each year, the festival features fireworks, dancing, singing, and traditional food.

The easternmost point of land in North America , Cape Spear offers spectacular views along the coast towards St. John’s. In summer, visitors can often spot whales swimming below the cliffs, while icebergs can be seen floating in the waters between April and July. The cape is home to a number of pleasant boardwalks, with its main path leading to the oldest remaining lighthouse in the province. A beloved symbol of Newfoundland and Labrador’s seafaring history, this Victorian lighthouse has been restored with 19th century furnishings.

Anglican Cathedral of St John the Baptist

The Anglican Cathedral of St John the Baptist is a lovely hillside building dating back to the 19th century. A gorgeous example of Gothic Revival architecture, the cathedral was rebuilt after the Great Fire of 1892. The cathedral features intricate oak carvings, beautiful stained glass windows, stone arches, and bluestone walls. One of the oldest pieces is a 12th-century gargoyle found in the south transept. In the summer, it’s possible to enjoy tea and homemade scones in the crypt. Free organ recitals take place on Wednesday afternoons, with the music enhancing the cathedral’s already-powerful presence.

Codroy Valley

Codroy Valley is a picturesque landscape of lush green farmlands. Protected by the Long Range Mountains, the valley is overlooked by rugged cliffs topped with beautiful old churches. The valley was one of the earliest recorded settlements on the west coast of Newfoundland and today it’s home to several small Scottish and Irish communities with strong ties to their heritage. The Grand Codroy River area offers excellent opportunities for hiking, kayaking, and bird-watching in the summer, while snowmobiling and cross-country skiing are popular in the winter.

Deadman’s Bay Provincial Park

Spreading across 72 hectares, Deadman’s Bay Provincial Park is an ideal spot for nature enthusiasts eager to get off-the-beaten path. The park’s sandy beach offers impressive views of the North Atlantic, with icebergs often visible in the early summer. There are some pretty picnic sites where you can sit and admire the scenery, or you can just stroll and admire the sand dunes. Not to be confused with another of Newfoundland’s beautiful places, Deadmans Bay hiking path runs between historic Fort Amherst and Blackhead on the Avalon Peninsula’s 300 kilometre long East Coast Trail.

Fogo Island

Home to friendly locals and spectacular coastal scenery, Fogo Island exudes a timeless beauty. A collection of 11 distinct communities, the island has recently become known as an artistic hub thanks to its arts-residency projects. The island is home to some fantastic hiking trails, including Brimstone Head which has been dubbed one of the “four corners of the world” by the Flat Earth Society . Rising 90 meters over the island, this craggy summit truly does feel perched on the edge of the earth. The village of Tilting is particularly picturesque with its old boathouses, clapboard cottages, and lively Irish heritage.

Torngat Mountain National Park

Torngat Mountain National Park expands from north from the Saglek Fjord to northern edge of Labrador, and west between the Atlantic coast and the border with Quebec . Although Torngat is one of Canada’s newest national parks, its history stretches back for more than a billion years. It’s less accessible than most of the province’s other national parks, with no roads, signs, or campgrounds; however, this park rewards those willing to make the extra effort to reach it with some of Canada’s highest peaks, and wildlife ranging from caribou to polar bears.

Twillingate

The picturesque town of Twillingate is part of Iceberg Alley , a stretch of ocean that runs all the way to Greenland. This area is one of the best places in the country to spot icebergs, depending on the time of year. Little has changed about the way of life in this village over the centuries, with most locals continuing to earn their livelihood from the sea. This postcard-worthy town is filled with pastel houses perched on cliffs and rocky outcrops. In September, the hills around town flourish with blueberries and partridge berries.

Terra Nova National Park

Terra Nova National Park’s beauty is a little more understated compared to parks like Torngat Mountain and Gros Morne. It doesn’t have any big, dramatic mountains, but its arboreal forests, marshes and gently rolling hills are lovely nonetheless. The park encompasses 12 excellent hiking trails, along which visitors often spot bald eagles, beavers, moose, and bears. Canoeing, kayaking, or boating along the park’s scenic coastline offer the chance to see icebergs, whales, and diverse bird species. In the winter, the park’s pristine snows are perfect for cross-country snowshoeing and skiing.
