Worth stopping for

Newfoundland Insectarium

On the way to…

  1. YDF → Marble Mountain →

    A museum whose name states its whole offer, minutes from the terminal. Mapped as a museum in OpenStreetMap; hours are its own business, so check before detouring with kids in the car.

    Stopping here adds about 3 min and 1.9 km to that drive (39 min door to door).

  2. YDF → Gros Morne (Rocky Harbour) →

    A museum a couple of minutes from the airport, essentially at the start of the drive. Seasonal opening — check hours with the museum before building a stop around it.

    Stopping here adds about 1 min and 0.2 km to that drive (55 min door to door).

  3. YDF → Woody Point →

    A museum a couple of minutes from the airport, at the very start of the drive. Seasonal opening — check hours with the museum.

    Stopping here adds about 1 min and 0.2 km to that drive (58 min door to door).

Drive it with your own nav:Organic Maps →OsmAnd →Apple →Google →Waze →The first two run on OpenStreetMap and don't track you — the same map this site is built from.

What the map knows

Mapped as museum in OpenStreetMap.

Its own site (from the OSM element) →

While you're stopped here: Deer Lake visitor centre (0.9 km away) · Joe Butts Lookout (1.9 km away) · Pasadena's beach on Deer Lake (23 km away)

The map last touched this element on 2023-08-21 — an old date is not proof of closure, only of nobody updating the map; if you know better, edit OpenStreetMap and every site built on it learns.

All of it read from the cited element and this site's own measured stops (2026-09-05); nothing above is our endorsement — it is the map's record.

Where this pin comes from: OpenStreetMap node/10018014709 → — the same element every figure on this page is checked against.
