St John's Experiences

Duration: 2 hours

Set sail with Newfoundland's award winning boat tour! Depart from downtown St. John's, walking distance from major hotels and B&Bs, and sail through "The Narrows", past Cabot Tower, en route to Cape Spear. Journey through our pristine waters that are home to world's largest concentration of humpback whales. Steam past 12,000 year old icebergs and watch as Atlantic puffins frolic along our coastlines.
