Twillingate offers a choice of boat tours waiting to show you the breathtaking coastline in search of whales and icebergs in Notre Dame Bay. Each tour offers something unique, and no visit to Twillingate is complete without a boat tour. Choose from a comfortable closed-cabin tour boat, the thrill of a larger rigid-bottom zodiac, or a smaller motorboat offering a more personalized tour. You may get the chance to jig a cod fish!

A boat tour will also reveal the startling contrast between the rugged coastline and the reflection of many small islands mirrored in the calm water surrounding them. Look for humpbacks, fins, minkes, dolphins, and pilot whales. Harp seals may also be seen in late May, June, or early July. Birds to be seen include murres, seagulls, black guillemot, terns, shearwaters, and puffins.
