Newfoundland accommodation listings
Isolated from the rest of the country, Newfoundland only in recent years have many of the out ports - the ancient fishing settlements that were home to the first Europeans - been linked by road to the solitary highway, the Trans-Canada, which sweeps 900km from the southwest corner of the island to the Avalon Peninsula, where St John’s, the capital, sits on the northeast shore. Ferries from Nova Scotia touch the southwest and the Avalon, but most visitors fly straight to St John's, the island's only significant town and the obvious place to start a visit, for its museums, its flourishing folk music scene and its easy access to the Witless Bay sea-bird reserve. Yet there are more delightful spots than this: tiny Trinity , on the Bonavista Peninsula north of the Avalon isthmus, is easily the most beguiling of the outports; the French-owned archipelago of St-Pierre et Miquelon is noted for its restaurants; Gros Morne National Park , in the west, features wondrous mountains and glacier-gouged lakes; and at the far end of the Northern Peninsula you'll find the scant but evocative remains of an eleventh-century Norse colony at L'Anse aux Meadows , the only such site in North America.
