Whales & Icebergs

Our thrilling 2 1/2 hour tour explores the breathtaking coastal waters off St. Anthony. An area noted for its icebergs, whales and seabirds.
The St. Anthony coast is one of the best places in the world for viewing humpbacks and Atlantic white-beaked dolphins. Sightings of minke, fin and killer whales are also common. When the whales arrive, savor the sounds of their acoustical blows or watch them breach nearby.
On each tour, our experienced local naturalist will captivate the audience with a live interpretative program. It’s intended to be fun, educational and provide our guests with a greater appreciation for our natural and cultural heritage. The interpretation will focus on our icebergs, marine wildlife, and Newfoundland culture. The enthusiasm and hospitality of our naturalists and crew will delight you.
