This special summer 2024 update includes the best tips and trick to help you pick the right spot for a safe and fun adventure on the ocean during your next Newfoundland boat tour, whale watching, and nature experiences.

Each year we are inundated with reader questions about where to go to see nature and wildlife when visiting Newfoundland so this year we’re taking a deep dive into everything you need to know when planning boat tours and more in Newfoundland.

Is It Easy to Find Nature and Wildlife in Newfoundland?

Part of the story is it’s hard not to encounter nature and wildlife when in Newfoundland. The other part of the Newfoundland wildlife and nature story, however, is location matters. Location can mean the difference between seeing one whale and seeing hundreds.

What Whales Can I See in Newfoundland

Interested in the recent increase in Right Whale sightings in Newfoundland? How about the Blue Whales that spend part of their time just offshore? Big draws are also puffins, dolphins, sharks, humpback whales, otters, jelly fish, killer whales, and seabirds, which in places like the Witless Bay Marine Ecological Reserve, appear in droves.

On a good day, you can take a sightseeing drive south from Whale House Guest House near Tinkers Point East Coast Trail Path and see hundreds of whales. You can also whale watch from land directly from the Tinkers Point Path trail coastal meadows, which is a very cool picnic venue on a summer afternoon.

Newfoundland Secret Cruise Boat Tour

Did you know one of the best boat tours starts without many people realizing they are even on it? The ferry to Newfoundland is like a mini cruise, and with the new Newfoundland ferry now in operation, the most affordable ocean cruise around just got even fancier.

If you’re wondering how to get to Newfoundland by ferry check out the how to get to Newfoundland by ferry article. It now includes the latest details on the new Newfoundland ferry called the Ala’Suinu and how to book a spot on it this summer 2024. 

Why Is Witless Bay and Mobile Bay a Top Global Whale Watching Destination?

Did you know some of the best big boat tours take place in the witless bay marine ecological reserve? With competing companies like Gatheralls Boat Tours and O’Brien’s Boat Tours exploring the marine reserve is easy, safe, and fun.

Small Boat Whale Watching Tours 

Looking for a more intimate whale watching boat tour experience? Get up close and personal with the smaller craft Molly Bawn Boat Tours whale and puffin boat tour. This tour leaves directly from the end of the lane at Whale House Guest House and takes you on a smaller vessel. This means you can cause less disturbance in the water, navigate tight spaces, and spend your time that much closer to the water and whales.

This boat tour boasts three daily departures from Whale House Guest House to the Witless Bay Ecological Reserve Marine Protected zone. Because this Newfoundland boat tour features a trip through mobile bay, it offers increased chances of seeing orca whales since mobile bay is a famous location  orca whales use to ambush humpback whales. Since mobile bay is deep at the mouth, orcas can attack humpback whales from below while they are more vulnerable in deeper water. The moly bawn boat tour has documented several of these events.
