The approach into Nain is often spectacular from the right, providing views of Paul Island and the intricate maritime approaches to the community. Best viewed during the long days of summer when the sun stays high, illuminating the turquoise shallows near the rocky shores.

Subarctic Tundra
Expansive views of the Canadian Shield with its unique mossy ground cover and resilient boreal vegetation.
Ancient Rock Formations
Dramatic outcrops of some of the oldest rock on Earth, showing glacial scars and weathering.
Glacial Kettle Lakes
A dense network of small, crystal-clear lakes formed by retreating glaciers thousands of years ago.
Look for wildlife such as caribou or black bears moving across the open tundra. Morning flights provide soft shadows that highlight the topographic relief of the inland hills. Ensure your window is clean as the low northern sun can cause significant glare on the glass.
