Luxury holidays in Newfoundland & Labrador

When to go

Summer (June to August) is the warmest, and fall (September and October), while cooler, is still generally a sunny and pleasant time of year to be outdoors. Long winters (November to March) give way to the spring thaw when icebergs and whales emerge.

Getting there

• Planes

  Fly to into Newfoundland from London Heathrow or New York area airports to either St. John's International Airport or Gander International Airport via Air Canada (www.aircanada.com) or United Airlines (www.united.com). Charter flights connect to smaller islands off the coast.

• Boats

  If venturing to smaller islands you can also reach them via ferry from Newfoundland.

• Automobiles

  A car is convenient for exploration, and there are several reliable car hire companies at the airports.
