  • “Then I drove into Trinity and gasped. That was one of the best views I had ever seen. A tiny village filled with brightly painted houses. Rocky cliffs around the edges; a soft cloud wrapping around islands in the background. It felt like something out of Neverland.”

  • "It’s foggy when we arrive in this break-your-heart pretty coastal town that dates to the 1500s — first as a seasonal fishing ground then later as a permanent settlement. By the late 1700s, Trinity was an important centre of trade. Local merchants operated dozens of ships and exported up to 40 per cent of the cod, whale oil and seals harvested in Newfoundland."

  • “I mean, even in peak season, the Trinity Bight is still very relaxed. It’s not like you’re jostling other travellers for space. But there’s a particularly refreshing calm when you’re there in the autumn – it’s like pressing the reset button on yourself. The quietness and stillness in rural Newfoundland really can’t be beat.”

  • “Beautifully preserved saltbox houses, calligraphed street signs, and a thriving theater tradition make Trinity one of Newfoundland's most storied towns. Watch a blacksmith at work, learn about barrel making, or spot whales while hiking the Skerwink Trail. In the summer, local actors and singers in 1700s garb transport visitors to the past through scenic walking tours during the New Founde Lande Trinity Pageant. Meanwhile, restaurants like Twine Loft at the Artisan Inn use fresh seafood to showcase the town's culinary past and future.:.”

And he said, ‘I feel like me when I’m here.’
