Join the 2 to 2.5 hour Discovery Tour, one of those St. Anthony Newfoundland boat tours people keep talking about long after they get back. St. Anthony sits in a pocket of the province where icebergs, humpbacks, and dolphins consistently show up in numbers you just don’t see anywhere else in Newfoundland, and out on the water, that becomes obvious fast. The coastline keeps things coming. Icebergs float past, humpbacks appear like they are part of the place, and dolphins move alongside. It does not slow down, with minke, fin whales, and even orca showing up now and then. Seabirds fill the edges, keeping everything active. You are on a comfortable 50 foot vessel with music and stories in the background, and it all turns into a whale watching tour in Newfoundland that feels relaxed and surprisingly unreal.

Operating Season: May 23rd – September 15th

The start date for these discovery boat tours is subject to ice conditions. It might be later in May before ice conditions are favourable. Feel free to call us for an update.
