Worth stopping for

Ryan Premises National Historic Site

On the way to…

  1. YQX → Cape Bonavista →

    The mapped Parks Canada site on Bonavista's waterfront — the five-century salt-fish story told in the merchant premises where it actually ran. Hours and season are Parks Canada's; the buildings are on the way to the cape regardless.

    Stopping here adds about 2 min and 0.5 km to that drive (3h 45m 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 — it keeps posted hours, so check before building the day around it.

Its own site (from the OSM element) →

While you're stopped here: Dungeon Provincial Park (3 km away) · The root cellars at Elliston (5.4 km away) · John C. Crosbie Sealers Interpretation Centre (5.5 km away)

The map last touched this element on 2021-12-27 — 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 way/1015855463 → — the same element every figure on this page is checked against.
