Lobster Cove Head Lighthouse

Reviewed By Lets_Cruise_13 - Ottawa, Canada

On Friday August 16th, 2019, my wife and I continued from the Village of Rocky Harbour following Main Street up to Lobster Cove Head and the Bonne Bay Lighthouse, NFLD. On arrival, there is ample parking space in the visitor parking lot. From there, we proceeded to the red and white Lighthouse that once served to guide fishermen and to keep shipping traffic safe in the waters of Bonne Bay. Inside the lighthouse, you can examine renovated exhibits that highlighted the people and the heritage of the area. Some present audio recordings of folks’ songs, historical photos, and old lightkeepers logbooks. While in the kitchen, we met friendly Parks Canada Guides that were knitting and chatting along. Outside the lighthouse we noticed many walking trails paths that lead to photos spots. Many visitors were enjoying themselves picnicking while others were walking along the rocky shores. It is said that this Bonne Bay Lighthouse is known as the perfect spot to enjoy sunsets or even to spot whales. If you are visiting this western part of NFLD and the surrounding areas of Gros Morne National Park, Lobster Cove Head is a must to see as it provides for magnificent viewpoints for taking photos. We would recommend it to family and friends.

Treasure Box

Reviewed By JenniferandAlan - Easton, United States

This shop has it all. We stopped in to buy homemade jams as gifts and saw that there was a restaurant there as well. We tried the fish cakes that were recommended and they were good. There is all manner of homemade prepared foods too--some are heat and eat while others are just ready to eat. I imagine it comes in handy if you are camping. A good place to eat or buy traditional food and you can do your gift shopping at the same time. What could be better.
