Kaipokok Bay
A long, deep fjord-like inlet that serves as the main marine artery for the Postville community.
Iceberg Alley
The coastal waters are famous for drifting icebergs, particularly visible from May through July.
Coastal Archipelago
An intricate cluster of hundreds of small, uninhabited rocky islands scattered along the shore.
Whale Sightings
In the summer months, keep an eye on the deep blue waters for minke and humpback whales.
The right side is superior for coastal scenery. For the best photography, choose a morning flight when the sun illuminates the cliffs and waves. If flying in late spring, bring polarized sunglasses to better spot icebergs against the sea glare.

Boreal Transition Zone
Dense spruce forests and lichen-covered barrens typical of the subarctic landscape.
Glacial Ponds
A dense network of thousands of small, sparkling water bodies carved by ancient glaciers.
Canadian Shield
Ancient, gnarled rock formations and ridges that define the rugged interior plateau.
Sit on the left if you enjoy the vast, untouched wilderness of the Labrador interior. In early autumn, the tundra colors turn a deep crimson and gold, providing a stunning contrast to the dark rocks. Afternoon flights offer the best lighting for this side.
