An awe-inspiring sight off of Canada's easternmost coast!
Rising up from the crashing waves of the North Atlantic Ocean, Newfoundland and Labrador boasts spectacular coastal scenery in which land and sea seem tovie for attention. Whether standing on a bluff or the shores of a fjord-like bay, Canada's eastern edge offers endless vantage points for gazing outat the waters that are teeming with marine life. Whales, seals and seabirds delight with their seemingly playful nature; but in late spring, towering icebergs draw many to Iceberg Alley, where the silent passage of these glacial giants is enough to leave one feeling spellbound.
