Introducing Western Newfoundland

Show mapClose map

Western Newfoundland presents many visitors with their first view of The Rock, thanks to the ferry landing at Port aux Basques. It’s big, cliffy, even a bit forbidding with all those wood houses clinging to the jagged shoreline against the roaring wind. From Port aux Basques, pokey fishing villages cast lines to the east, while Newfoundland’s second-largest town, Corner Brook, raises its wintry head (via its ski mountain) to the northeast.
