Iceberg Capital of the World: A small island in the North Atlantic, Twillingate is one of the most picturesque outports in all of Newfoundland and Labrador. Located on the edge of what is known as iceberg alley, Twillingte is affectionately known as the iceberg capital of the world. Many of these 10,000 year old giants float quietly by each year and people travel great distances just to chance a glance.

Icebergs, Whales, Bout Tours and Museums: There is much to experience in this tidy little town - several museums and the boat tours that are everyone's favourites; see whales and icebergs up close and catch a view of this magical island from the water has caused many to stay. The annual Fish Fun and Folk Festival is 20 - 26 July 09 and adventurer Bob Bartlett's schooner, the Bowdoin, arrives at 7 pm. on July 23 09.
