This is where all things mammal related can be found. Take a tour out the ecological reserve and view all of the birds, especially the Atlantic Puffin - where the largest colony of Puffins exist (250,000). Enjoy seeing humpback whales from May to August when they come to feast on the caplin. And maybe just maybe they will jump and flip their tail to say thanks for stopping by.

History of Newfoundland
The unique culture of Newfoundland and Labrador is a product of our English, Irish, French, and Indigenous heritage. This province’s history is rich with stories and legends, explorers, and inventors. For thousands of years, Indigenous groups hunted, fished, and settled in the province. The Bethok were the last known Indigenous peoples of the island. Vikings visited here at the beginning of the last millennium, European visitation didn’t begin until John Cabot’s voyage in 1497. St. John’s is one of the oldest cities in North America. Be sure you visit St. John's.
