Newfoundland
Icebergs drifting past fishing villages clinging to the rock, whales that outnumber the people watching them, and a welcome so warm the whole province is built around a stranger's kitchen table.
The best time to visit Newfoundland is Jun–Sep, when typical daytime highs reach about 19°C (66°F). Local time there is 15:21 (UTC-2:30).
