Join a Wildland Tours/Adventure Newfoundland naturalist on our quest to study and catalogue the humpbacks and orcas of northern Newfoundland and southern Labrador. The area is incredibly rich with wildlife but is one of North America\'s least studied marine areas. Enjoy comfortable nights, wild days, and some of our planet\'s most dramatic landscapes as we count humpbacks and pioneer the study of eastern North America\'s orcas. We also take the time to explore the Norse settlement at L\'Anse aux Meadows and the lighthouses and lookouts of northern Newfoundland.

Special Features: The coast of Labrador with its rich wildlife and abandoned fishing villages adds a poignant human dimension to this marine adventure. The restored Fishing Capital of Labrador at Battle Harbour is a must-see for arctic enthusiasts. This was where Peary and Bartlett told the world about their journey to the North Pole.
