Twillingate is one of Newfoundland’s most scenic spots. The main town spans two islands — North and South Twillingate Island — connected by a causeway and dotted with charming fishing wharves, colourful houses, and stunning coastal views. It’s a picture-perfect destination, but its real allure lies in its location — right on the edge of what’s known as ‘Iceberg Alley.’

Every spring and early summer, enormous sheets of ice calve off Greenland’s glaciers and are carried down the coast of Newfoundland and Labrador by the sea currents. These majestic icebergs drift past Twillingate, offering incredible views from the land or, for a closer experience, by boat.
