There's no better time than spring and early summer for you to experience the wonders of Newfoundland and Labrador. This lively season brings out the best in our province, from glorious icebergs and frolicking whales to playful puffins and millions of other seabirds. Let us help you discover the magnificence of our natural treasures.

Cathedrals of Ice
Did you know that Newfoundland and Labrador is the best place on Earth for you to see icebergs? You'll watch these 10,000 year old icy giants float silently by along the Iceberg Alley, which runs from the northern tip of Labrador all the way down to the southern Grand Banks of Newfoundland.

Colossal Grace
Imagine 22 species of ocean mammals to encounter. The plentiful humpback whales each weigh as much as a house. It's impossible to describe the sensation you feel when you see them defying gravity as they playfully leap, fully breach and crash back into the ocean. We think it's your turn to catch a glimpse of these awesome creatures.

Ahoy!
A great way to catch all the rugged beauty of coastal Newfoundland and Labrador is by boat. You'll hitch a ride with one of our many boat tour operators and get up close and personal with our marine environment. With over 35 million seabirds across 29,000 kilometers of coastline, it's a birdwatcher's dream. Take your pick of puffins, gannets, storm-petrels and razorbills, falcons, hawks, ospreys, and our large population of American bald eagles.
