Eastern Newfoundland winds its way from historic Cape Bonavista to the
charming villages of the Burin Peninsula.
The towns of Bonavista and Trinity once rivaled St. John's as the fishing
capital of North America. Today they rival any spot in the world with their
simple beauty and honest, friendly folk. From English architecture and narrow
streets to wide open seascapes and whale watching trips, you will find many reasons to stay.
This is a land of sheltered coves, sandy beaches and bright, blue waters. A
wonderful place for sailing, swimming or strolling down the shore on a bright
and sunny day.
Eastern Newfoundland has a network of Provincial Parks. Drive the
Discovery Trail. Hike a winding path. Spy a diving osprey. Terra Nova National Park offers
a full range of facilities and programs too all visitors.
Local museums and archives trace the development of the techniques and
tools of the fishing trade. The hard realities of life underground are
graphically displayed at the
Miner's Memorial Museum in St. Lawrence. The
Hiscock House
in Trinity is a a typical rural merchant's house, circa 1910. The life of
Jeremiah White revolved around the light in the
Cape Bonavista Lighthouse, which he was the first to tend over 100 years ago.
Throughout the entire region you will see signs of a different age. It's
all a part of the charm you will experience when you take time to enjoy a spell
in Eastern Newfoundland and Labrador.
Enjoy your visit!
