Burin Boat Tour Combines Coastal Adventure with Local Maritime History
A fast-paced 90-minute coastal excursion departing from Deeks Cove is offering visitors an immersive journey through the dramatic seascapes and storied past of the Burin Peninsula. Travelling aboard a rigid hull inflatable boat, passengers are taken through sheltered inlets and rugged coastal waters shaped by centuries of maritime activity.
The route passes notable landmarks including Pardy Island, Stepaside, Port Au Bras, and Great Burin Harbour, each carrying echoes of once-thriving coastal communities. Guides on board bring the region’s history to life with stories of piracy lore, abandoned settlements, and dramatic events that shaped the shoreline.
A central part of the narrative focuses on the devastating 1929 tsunami, which had a lasting impact on both the landscape and local communities. As the boat moves through the inlet, passengers are offered a vivid perspective on how natural forces and human resilience have shaped life along this remote stretch of Newfoundland’s coast.
Alongside its historical storytelling, the tour highlights the region’s natural beauty and wildlife. Guests may spot seabirds such as cormorants, ospreys, and great black-backed gulls, as well as unexpected sights along the cliffs and shoreline, including the distinctive Burin Pinnacles. The combination of scenery, wildlife, and folklore creates a dynamic coastal experience for visitors exploring this rugged Atlantic region.
