Three Destinations in Canada Recognized in New York Times 2022 Travel List

This year’s New York Times list of the top 52 places to visit highlighted destinations “where travellers can be a part of the solution”. Newfoundland & Labrador’s Fogo Island was listed at number 17, Vancouver Island at number 40, and Thaiden Nëné National Park Reserve at number 50. We are proud to see these destinations recognized for their contribution to improving the well-being of economies, communities, and visitors.

Explore Change Islands
Across the glistening waters of Notre Dame Bay stand the beautifully formed shores of Change Islands. Humpback whales migrate through these waters and icebergs drift along the currents down Iceberg Alley. As seabirds soar overhead, you can relax in the salty ocean breeze and look out over the sights on the ferry ride.

On Change Islands, meander around historic buildings, over granite outcroppings, and past the greenest grasses and gardens. Small community charm and rich fishing culture combine with a prominent sense of history to make this place a tourist and artist's paradise. It's also home to a Newfoundland pony refuge.

Getting to Fogo Island and Change IslandsFogo Island is in central Newfoundland and can be reached by taking Route 330 north from Gander to the ferry service that runs from Farewell (via Route 331 and 335). The ferry sails visitors to Change Islands in 25 minutes, while the crossing from Farewell to Fogo Island is approximately 50 minutes. Please check the ferry schedule in advance, as weather can postpone sailings. EVAS Air Charters offers regular air service between Gander and Fogo Island.
