Take a run ‘Up’ the Southern Shore as we wind along the pretty coastal roadways that connect the outport fishing communities along Newfoundland’s Irish Loop. This is a beautiful drive along the coast with architecture and development that reflects an era of opulence thought unimaginable for this period in North American history. We’ll meet fascinating characters, visit small fishing communities, and absorb the magnitude of luxury items discovered at the Colony of Avalon archeological site.
Experience the natural beauty of Bay Bulls, Newfoundland, a picturesque fishing village known for its scenic harbor, captivating boat tours, and proximity to the breathtaking Witless Bay Ecological Reserve, home to puffins and other seabirds- we will be able to take in the history and scenery of the same place that we explored from the sea the day before.
