Our Favourite Imagery of 2025

By Newfoundland & Labrador

As each year comes to a close, we like to look back and celebrate the moments that made it special. 2025 was full of breathtaking sights, unexpected adventures, and the usual everyday beauty our province, captured by locals and visitors alike. Here’s a collection of some of our favourite imagery from this past year.

Quiet Waters, Bright Shores

Ben Smith captured this serene moment where colourful buildings and a lone dory rest in the calm harbour of Newtown, showcasing the simple charm of Newfoundland and Labrador’s coastal life.

A Familiar Shape

Drifting along the coast, this iceberg looks a lot like home. Caught at just the right moment by our friend Steve Sheppard, it’s a reminder that here in Newfoundland and Labrador, even the icebergs have a way of fitting right in.

Drifting Through the Cove

With 29,000 kilometres of coastline, Newfoundland and Labrador has an abundance of ways to adventure on the water. Take this video by Darek Nakonieczny of a group of kayakers in the waters of Chance Cove as inspiration for your next adventure!

Diving into the New Year

With the worlds largest population of humpback whales returning every year between the months of May-September, Newfoundland and Labrador is one of the most spectacular spots for whale watching. Devin March snapped this beautiful shot of a humpback whale breaching in the waters near Bauline South.

Winter Wonderland

Photographer Ray Mackey was in the right place at the right time to capture the magic of the first winter snow in our capital city, as each colorful home peeks out from under a blanket of white.
