June 2 - June 12, 2014 aboard the Sea Adventurer

We celebrate twenty years of cruising Newfoundland with this spring sailing, ideally timed for whales, icebergs, and breeding seabirds. The island’s rugged charm and geographic diversity are best appreciated when visiting by ship. At Gros Morne, the planet’s mantle frames fiords that would be at home in Norway; on the Avalon Peninsula, a chunk of what was once Africa meets remnants of the Appalachian Mountains. Fogo Island is one of the traditional four corners of the world!

Starting and ending in historic St. John’s, we’ll experience Newfoundland’s lively culture and dramatic scenery in daily expedition stops. A visit to the French island of Miquelon caps the adventure. The welcome we receive in Newfoundland’s outport communities is indescribable; the music and stories, unforgettable!

2014 Newfoundland Circumnavigation

Day 1: St. John’s, NewfoundlandWe meet in St. John’s, Newfoundland’s historic, vibrant capital. Picturesque and welcoming, it has been continuously fished since 1498, allowing it to boast the designation of North America’s oldest European settlement. We join our vessel, Sea Adventurer here.

Day 2: Trinity BayNow home to two small settlements, Trinity and Heart’s Content, the Trinity Bay area was once home to a much larger, thriving population back in the 1700s and into the 1800s. The coastline here is dotted with remnants of past settlements and ghost towns, including Ireland’s Eye, all of which make for interesting landing sites.

Day 3: Fogo IslandLocated 15km off Newfoundland’s northeast coast, Fogo Island was originally named ‘fuego’ or ‘fire’ by the Portuguese, after fires set by early fishermen were seen burning on the island. A lucrative crab fishery has since replaced the salmon and cod fisheries that once supported the outport communities of the island. Fogo Island supports 11

communities, and a landmark proclaimed by the Flat Earth Society as one of the four corners of the Earth.

Day 4: Notre Dame BayNotre Dame Bay was home to Native cultures like the Dorset Palaeo-Eskimos and the Maritime Archaic Indians,

The Portuguese explorer Gaspar Corte-Real (c. 1450- c. 1502) sighted the bay, followed in 1534 by Frenchman Jacques Cartier (c. 1491-1557).

The French were the first to make extensive use of the bay’s rich fish resources, and from 1713 to 1783 the area was part of a fishery preserve known as the “French Shore.”

Day 5: L’Anse aux MeadowsWe call in this morning at one of the world’s most important archaeological sites, North America’s only authenticated Viking settlement, L’Anse aux Meadows. Protected as a National Historic Site by Parks Canada, reconstructed buildings of the earliest European settlement in North America are found here. The site was also used by Aboriginal people as

far back as 6000 years ago, creating quite an interesting history in the area. L’Anse aux Meadows is also listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Day 6: Gros Morne National ParkIt has been said, “Gros Morne is to geology what the Galapagos are to biology.” Spectacular scenery including Precambrian cliffs, deep inland fjords and volcanic “pillow” rocks formed as lava cooled underwater is just one of the reasons we stop here year after year. Highlights on this day include time spent exploring the Tablelands, a 600m (1900 ft) high plateau that forms one of the world’s best examples of ancient rock exposed from the earth’s interior, and exploring the fjord by ship.

Day 7: Port aux Port PeninsulaOur day ashore explores the coastline and outports of Port Aux Port, an area proudly supporting its francophone connections.

Day 8-9: South CoastThe wild and windswept coast of Southern Newfoundland is home to a few remaining outport communities. We will

I T I N E R A R Y D E TA I L S

EXPEDITIONS 21

have time to hike the uninhabited shoreline and visit one of the isolated communities, still largely cut off from mainstream travel.

Day 10: Miquelon, FranceOn the northern side of the larger island, the village of Miquelon is inhabited by 600 people, mostly of Basque and Acadian ancestry. Wildlife is most abundant on this

island and its couterpart to the south, the island of Langlade. The 8 mile sand dune between the two islands is peppered with over 500 shipwrecks

Day 11: St. John’s, NewfoundlandDiscover one of the oldest cities in North America, a city unlike any other. Cradled in a harbour carved from 500 million year old

rock and surrounded by hills running down to the ocean, St. John’s is the most easterly point in North America. St. John’s has been vitally important for centuries to explorers, adventurers, merchants, soldiers, pirates, and all manner of seafarers, who provided the foundation for this thriving modern day city.

ONLINE PROFILEAdventure Canada collects personal information from our passengers via a secure online account. You will be required to provide select medical and personal information and acknowledgement of select liabilities. Online accounts are set up by booking reservation. This means that all passengers on a given reservation will have access to each others information. You will be asked to acknowledge this process on our reservation form by checking off the box ‘I/we agree that all passenger details will be viewable by

We ask that your personal information be completed at your earliest convenience, but at least 120 days prior to departure.

INSURANCEAdventure Canada strongly advises all passengers to obtain travel insurance at the time of deposit. If you have not yet purchased your commercial airfare you may increase your insurance coverage afterwards. By not purchasing coverage at the time of booking you are not fully covered. Adventure Canada’s cancellation terms apply to all passengers. Emergency Medical and Evacuation Insurance is required for participation in all Adventure Canada expeditions.

PASSPORTS & VISASPASSPORTS ARE MANDATORY. Participants are responsible for obtaining personal Visas, passports and inoculations if required at their own expense.

ACTIVITY LEVELAdventure Canada expeditions are intended for people in reasonably good health. Zodiac cruises and transfer times can be lengthy. There are no elevators on board ship, and you must be able to climb stairs between decks. You must also be able to climb the external gangway stairs to transfer between the ship and the Zodiacs. Our guides and ship crew are available to assist you in and out of the Zodiacs, both on shore and at the gangway. Adventure Canada expeditions may involve extensive walking in variable weather over sometimes sandy or uneven terrain. Wherever possible on shore excursions, we break into smaller, guided groups according to interest and physical ability. This may mean one small group going off on a strenuous, two hour hike on steep terrain, while another explores the area in and around the landing beach, keeping to relatively level terrain and short distances. Generally speaking, once a few people are ready to return to the ship, the Zodiacs are usually available to take you back at the time of your choosing.

ZODIAC CRAFTZodiacs are the favoured means of transportation in the Arctic for all our expeditions and, indeed, wherever

shallow waters and beaches ring the shoreline. They are stable, versatile craft which cruise at an approximate speed of four knots, and in windy weather can make for rather splashy rides. We therefore recommend wearing wet weather gear for Zodiac transfers. Life preservers are absolutely compulsory. Zodiac landings will generally entail disembarking onto rocky or gravelly beaches. The beach landings may be wet, meaning that there may be some spray en route to shore, and that you may have to step into water up to 25 cm/10 inches deep. Rubber boots are highly recommended.

MEDICAL FACILITIESThis expedition is intended for persons in good health. Passengers who are not fit for long trips for any reason, including disability, heart or other health conditions, are advised not to join the tour. Should any such condition become apparent, we reserve the right to decline embarkation. Our vessel is not equipped to handle serious medical conditions. Medical and Emergency Evacuation insurance is mandatory and may be purchased through Adventure Canada at the time of booking. All passengers must carry a minimum of $75,000 USD per person emergency medical and evacuation coverage. This may not cover the full cost of a medical emergency. Additional expenses are the full responsibility of the passenger

A ship’s doctor will be in attendance in the ship’s small medical clinic on most cruises to administer to passengers’ basic health needs. If you require specific medications, please ensure that you bring a supply adequate to last you for the duration of the journey. Any applicable fee for medical services rendered or medicines supplied will be debited from your account.

GRATUITIESOur ship’s crew work hard to please and tips are heartily appreciated. In fairness to all of those who work together to make your cruise enjoyable, tips are collected at the end of the voyage and distributed equitably among the crew. Although we leave tip amounts to your discretion, in the past many passengers have asked for a recommended amount. We suggest a rate of $15USD per day, per passenger, as a kind and generous offering. Gratuities will be automatically added to your shipboard account, you may advise the purser onboard of you would like to increase or decrease the tip amount. Adventure Canada staff does not accept tips.
