PORT AUX BASQUES, NEWFOUNDLAND: VACATION PACKAGES & TRAVEL PLANNING
On the southwestern tip of Newfoundland is Port aux Basques, a little gem of a town named for whalers from the Basque region of the Pyrenees of France and Spain who sailed this area in the 1500s. Nicknamed the Gateway to Newfoundland, Port aux Basques is home to the ferry terminal that is the primary entry point onto the island of Newfoundland. Travelers will find warmth and hospitality from the town’s 4,000 residents. Historic attractions include the Railway Heritage Centre, Gulf Museum with maritime artifacts, and the Rose Blanche Lighthouse. The scenic St. Andrews Na Creige golf course, sandy shores of the Grand Bay West Beach, and lively shops and nightly entertainment of the Scott’s Cove area of town are other popular destinations.
