Local tips

Book your Marine Atlantic ferry crossing ahead, especially in July and August, when sailings to and from North Sydney fill quickly.
Walk the coastal trails for ocean views and lighthouses, including the area around the Port aux Basques lighthouse.
Visit the town centre for local shops and seafood restaurants before or after your ferry crossing.
Check local events and maritime festivals that may take place during your stay, as they can fill the town's limited rooms.
