On the way to…

  1. Cape Shore →

    Thousands of northern gannets nest on Bird Rock, a sea stack about 60 m high, close enough to the clifftop lookout to watch from land. Razorbills and murres nest here too, and guides lead nature hikes, per the province's tourism site.

    Stopping here adds about 26 km to that drive (234 km start to finish).
