St. John’s, Newfoundland: Port City Steeped in Maritime History

St. John’s sits on the eastern tip of Newfoundland’s Avalon Peninsula, bordering the Atlantic Ocean. There’s plenty going on in the capital city, but it manages to retain the charm of a small town, thanks in part to the brightly colored row houses—referred to as “Jellybean Row” by locals—that line the seashore. The Irish and English immigrants who founded the town have more than left their mark on it. On George Street, you can still hear the music of the Emerald Isle in many of the bars and pubs, most of which stay open into the wee hours.

To learn more about the area’s history, head to The Rooms, a provincial museum with exhibits on everything from the animals of the tundra to the cultures of the indigenous inhabitants. The Provincial Seamen’s Museum, a division of The Rooms, pays homage to the region’s maritime history with an expansive collection of artifacts from 19th-century sailing vessels, including an enormous wooden steering wheel.
