Top Reasons to Visit
Our Five UNESCO Cultural Sites and Natural Wonders
The educational, scientific, and cultural arm of the United Nations, UNESCO, has identified sites all over the world that are of outstanding natural and cultural significance. Newfoundland and Labrador is home to four World Heritage Sites and one Geopark, and no visit to the province would be complete without making it to at least one of them – and maybe you can collect the set.
Coastline
With more than 29,000 kilometres (18,000 miles) of majestic rugged coastline, you’re never far from the ocean. See houses of yellow and blue, lime, aqua, and green that cling to the shore in villages, outports, coves, guts, and bays; as proud to show their true colours as the people you’ll meet at every turn.
Icebergs
Breathe in plenty of fresh sea air along Iceberg Alley, where 10,000-year-old mountains of fresh water, carved from the glaciers of Greenland and the Arctic, glide past in spring and early summer.
World’s Largest Population of Humpback Whales
Icebergs drift south. Humpbacks migrate north. This is the place where their paths cross and is home to the world’s largest population of feeding humpback whales. Every year, 22 species of whales and dolphins come for peace and quiet, and the odd photo op.
Seabirds
The most spectacular and accessible seabird colonies in North America. More than 35 million seabirds gather here every year. Northern gannets, kittiwakes, murres, Atlantic puffins, osprey, falcons, hawks, storm petrels, razorbills, and bald eagles at six ecological reserves, including the magnificent Cape St. Mary’s Ecological Reserve.
Best Seasons
In addition to being a great spot for hiking and kayaking, we’re one of the few places in the world to receive simultaneous visits from whales, seabirds, and icebergs. As the whales and birds migrate north and the icebergs sail south, there’s a chance to experience all three of these wonderful sights in one trip. Like so much in nature, there are many factors that vary from year to year, but with luck you’ll witness this exciting spectacle.
Best Seasons:
Whale Watching: June – August
Birdwatching: May – October
Iceberg Viewing: April – August
Walking & Hiking: May – October
Kayaking: May – October
