Getting ashore
Ships anchor in the bay at Red Bay, and passengers are tendered to the village or land at the small quay.
Watch-outs
Labrador is remote and cold, with fog, ice and strong winds. Services are very limited, so bring what you need from the ship.
Red Bay
Red Bay is a UNESCO World Heritage site, where Basque whalers worked in the 16th century. The archaeological park shows the whaling station and the shipwrecks.
Labrador coast
The coast has fjords, icebergs in season, whales and seabirds. Boat trips run from the village when conditions allow.
Food & shopping
Labrador food includes fresh fish, seal and berries. The village has a few small shops and cafés.
Money & connectivity
The currency is the Canadian dollar. Cards are accepted in some places, and cash helps. Mobile signal is very limited.
Accessibility & mobility
The tender landing and the village paths are rough. The archaeological site has uneven paths. Ask your ship and operator about accessible transport.
