Destination St. John's

Being the most easterly point in North America has its advantages. We’re the closest city to Europe, which means St. John’s harbour is a haven for transatlantic travellers and a bustling commercial port. Home to the oldest street in North America, we’ve been welcoming adventurers from all corners of the world for over 500 years. 

A city rich in culture, we honour tradition while embracing eclectic sophistication. Walk through the winding alleyways of our vibrant downtown and encounter fashionistas, chefs, musicians, and more elements of a colourful tapestry of experiences unfolding before your eyes. 

Navigate the dramatic coastline on foot. Enjoy a day on the bay with whales, puffins or icebergs (maybe all three!). Beautiful vistas, unique culinary pleasures, colourful characters, and colourful architecture—just slices of an urban experience that feels like no other.
