Cape Spear: It's Not Another Signal Hill
Cape Spear Light House Yes, both Signal Hill and Cape Spear offer breathtaking coastal views—but that's where the similarities end. If you think visiting one means you can skip the other, think again. Cape Spear delivers a wild, windswept, edge-of-the-world experience that's entirely its own. Why Cape Spear Stands Out 1. The Easternmost Point in North America First Light hits Cape Spear - You're literally standing at the farthest east you can go on the continent. The sheer ge

St. John’s, NL: A Charming City Frozen in Time
St. Johns downtown We spent three days exploring St. John’s, Newfoundland, and it wasn’t at all what I expected. Two years ago, we made a brief stop in the city on a foggy, crowded day—wires crisscrossed the streets, parking was impossible, and without a plan, we quickly left, dismissing it as just another bustling urban center. But this time, we returned with a strategy—and discovered one of my favorite cities. Steeped in history, oozing charm, and surprisingly easy to navi

Oceanview RV Park & Little Bay: Where History Meets Breathtaking Beauty
Our Camp View Beachside Sunrises & Capelin Fish Don't let Little Bay, NL fool you. At first glance, it appears to be just another charming "cove town" with a population under 100 – the kind that dots Newfoundland's many harbor roads throughout the island. But Little Bay holds secrets that make it far more fascinating than its quiet present suggests. A Town That Once Rivaled St. John's Little Bay 1885 In 1878, copper was discovered in Little Bay, and by 1891, this previously u
