Overview

Enjoy a whale watching tour with 2-nights accommodation in historic Trinity, Newfoundland and Labrador. View whales, icebergs and marine life by guided Kayak and Zodiac along the beautiful coastline of Trinity Bay. You'll be staying in the 1840 historical Trinity Eco-tours Lodge.

Please Note: Minimum of 2 people required per booking

Be welcomed to your room at Trinity Eco-tours Lodge for your first night's accommodation. All rooms are ensuites with a double or queen bed. Choose a premier suite at an additional cost. Relax in your room enjoying cable and free WiFi. Hot breakfast is included with the room.

Enjoy your stay at the lodge for two days while choosing your tour times to view whales, icebergs, puffins, gannets, bald eagles, dolphins, capelin on a Zodiac Tour. This tour is 3-hours long with a guided introduction to the species of whales, sea birds, and animals that are typically seen on these tours.

Your guides will then fit you with an immersion suit to let you truly enjoy the thrill of being in a Zodiac boat. Enjoy a close viewing of the marine world. Travel up the Trinity Coast and view the majestic mountain cliffs that culminate in a rocky shoreline. Here, Eagles migrate annually to prey on the sea birds and fish that thrive in this area. Capelin roll on the beaches to spawn and fertilize their eggs after traveling from their offshore home. Humpback, Sperm, Fin and other species complete an annual migration to feed on the billions and billions of these little fish.

You'll pass by an occupied eagles nest with young eaglets in view. Gannets, puffins, turres and murres are seen along the way. Dolphins are not an uncommon appearance and may show up anywhere on the tour.

Several films have been shot in the Trinity area, including The Shipping News, The Grand Seduction, Random Passage and just recently Maudie. You'll pass by the areas that these films were shot. They are included in the tour at the 1, 5 and 6 Nautical Mile mark. The tour turnaround point is at the sea cave, where you'll enter at Bonaventure Head and Maiden Island.

Depending upon the time, you may stop by to visit the Puffin Colony at Anthony Island. Minke whales are a year long resident of this area. They are seen at any time during the year. Track down the centre of the bay to see any wildlife that does not stick close to the shoreline, such as Porpoises, Shags, Gannets and Shearwaters.

Highlights include stopping at Spaniards Cove to count the many Bald Eagles on the cliffs and Bonaventure Head to fish for a Cod in season. This is a great opportunity to catch your own lunch.

Finish the tour with a viewing of the Cormorants on Skerwink Rock and a view of one of the most Celebrated trails in Canada - the Skerwink Trail, a great view and a terrific hike. Hikers can be seen walking the trail from the boat. Lots of other great unscripted things can happen.

Enjoy another nights accommodation at your lodge, pick up the guitar and play a tune. Someone may even join in and play a tune for you, possibly the owner. Repeat your experience in a kayak which has a totally different perspective. Enjoy a harbor tour leaving form Trinity Beach going to Skerwink Head, view wildlife and sea caves.

Everyone has to do this - all right, there may be the odd mad whale. I don't know yet how we didn't end up upside down in the water with the one that kept belting our boat! Recommended to everyone

I booked two nights and an iceberg tour. I could not have asked for better hosts. Barb, Robert and Cindy were absolutely amazing and really made me feel so welcome. The lodge is so well built with a very quaint and relaxing feel to it. Such amazing food too in the kitchen. Iceberg tour was So phenomenal and skipper Bob really made everyone on tour feel welcome and included. We were all in awe at his awesome demeanour and knowledge of the area. I would do this over and over again. If in Trinity, you really should consider trinity eco tours for accommodation and whale/iceberg tours. 10/10 in my books

We booked 2 nights at the lodge plus a whale watching Zodiac tour and an ATV tour. Our whale tour was booked for the Wednesday morning but the weather was too rough so we easily switched to the following day and then were able to move our evening ATV tour to the afternoon. Before we set out on the zodiac Captain Bob gave us a brief rundown of the whales and marine life that come to the area and helped us identify the whales with photos, Then we headed down to the shore-side and were kitted out in lovely warm suits. You definitely needed them with your gloves and hats etc. The zodiac has fixed seating positions and there were 6 of us plus the captain. We headed out and were lucky enough to see several humpbacks and a brief Minke glimpse. We also went over to an island where we could get a closer look at the puffins. The excursion lived up to our expectations and we had a great time. I never felt we were in any way harassing the marine life. It's a much closer to nature experience than the bigger boats that go out and I highly recommend it. Afterwards we were able to warm up with a hot lunch at the lodge cafe.
