Canada Whale watching from land in Grates Cove

Starting in late June, whales can often be spotted in the bay. It’s usually the mothers with their calves who are feeding or playing there.
The marked spot is the viewpoint with the fishing boat coming in. The other photo was taken right by a cliff nearby.
Of course, there’s no guarantee the whales will be there. But it’s definitely worth stopping by if you want a chance to see them. A good clue is the large number of seagulls, which are almost always found near the whales.

A good telephoto lens comes in handy here.

There isn't much traffic, and you can park by the road without getting in anyone's way.
