(Translated) the point that houses the lighthouse is fascinating and offers beautiful landscapes. A couple of km before arriving there is an information point that will tell you about the ancient inhabitants of the place in an interesting way. from the tip begins a nice trail, not demanding. I have seen many caribou, and or found the remains of seals, qyindi I think that going there in season to the can easily see even those (Original) la punta che ospita il faro è affascinante e offre dei bei paesaggi. Un paio di km prima di arrivare c'è un punto informativo che vi racconterà in maniera interessante la rava e la fava circa gli antichi abitatori del luogo. dalla punta prende inizio un bel trail, non impegnativo. Io ho visto molti caribù, e o trovato i resti di foche, qyindi penso che andandoci in stagione ai possano facilmente vedere anche quelle

Loved it! Very cool

Classic light house! Great sight lines and views. Best part is we saw a small group of Caribou wandering around the area as though they owned the place. The limestone barrens are truly something to see to appreciate. The Parks Canada visitor center at the door step is a huge bonus. A must stop on the western edge of Newfoundland.

The lighthouse itself is a lighthouse - not too much excitement, unless lighthouses are your thing. However, the location is amazing. There's nothing else around, and you feel like you're at the edge of the world. A good place to sit and reflect, or go for hikes along the shoreline to explore. Be sure to also check out the visitor centre to learn of the first nations peoples that long ago occupied and left their mark on this spot.

Morgan Warren

Beautiful place to visit, especially at night when you can see the lighthouse in action.

Beautiful lighthouse and a great spot to catch some Caribou if you're lucky!

Take some time and walk the beach. Keep your eyes peeled for fossils and the local caribou herd.

Kathleen Laycock

Wonderful

Michael Hydorn

Seeing the herd of caribou alone is well worth the trip. Views of the Gulf are amazingly.

Jennifer Armstrong

I really enjoyed my visit here, there were Caribou and I was also lucky enough to spot two Humpback whales. Have a seat in the Parks Canada chairs and enjoy the breathtaking view.

Dallas Thompson

Stop and walk the trails. Enjoy your time.

Jason Wu

Amazing sunset views. Caribou sightings.

Scott Howell

Beautiful place! We enjoyed the views and really like the fossil walk. Caribou grazing by the ocean was the icing on the cake!

We visited while touring the Great Northern Peninsula by car from New York City. It was the first of September, cool, rainy and the inhospitable fall and winter coming on---or so it seemed to us thin-skinned Yanks. A gorgeous site at what feels like the end of the Earth. I most enjoyed hiking along the Port Aux Choix trails though, realizing the thousands of years this place has been inhabited by multiple cultures, multiple First Nations peoples let alone Anglos and Europeans. The museum there is very well done too. Highly recommend.

(Translated) Very beautiful site. There is a museum on site that I can not comment because I have not visited. Caribou are easy to see. (Original) Très beau site. Il y a un musée sur place que je ne peux commenter puisque je ne l'ai pas visité. Les caribous sont faciles à observer.

Beautiful spot! Kids enjoyed completing the Parks Canada Explorer books here, right down to rubbings of fossils in the limestone bordering the parking lot!

Gabe Ryan

Must visit. The hiking along the coast is amazing. You can't but admire the rock formations. We were lucky and saw a moose and caribou

Beautiful views come winter or summer. Also a highly recommendable walk around the point. And if you are lucky enough you might see some moose and or caribou.

Unspeakable and indescribable beauty. Make sure you wear a lite jacket in July/August. BBQ grills and picnic benches on the beach. Natural Spring water down the road.
