The Surrounding area
Trinity Bight area and, indeed, the entire Boanvista Peninsula is an area enriched with so many different interests for all to discover...wildlife in the skies, on the land and in the sea, multiple varities of flowers and berries, theatre, restaurants, and museums!!
Local Whale Watching Tours are offered at docks 100m from our Home, and also an option to set off from the other coast of the Bonavista Peninsula if it is too windy to go out from our side!
Great viewing of a large number of species of whales, both along the coast, and occasionally even in Trinity Harbour...as seen from the deck of Commander's Keep!

EAGLES SOAR OFF THE COASTAL CLIFFS, PUFFINS FROM THEIR ISLAND COLONY AT ELLISTON
Puffins parade on the ocean waves and in the air...
Gray Jays jabber and screech as they beg for picnic treats atop Gun Hill, overlooking Trinity. You will also see hundreds, if not thousands of Puffins at the colony in Elliston, almost at the northern tip of Bonavista Peninsula.
