Icebergs in Newfoundland Canada Spring 2023 - Ferryland
The large iceberg grounded off the coast of Ferryland Newfoundland Canada has been slowly melting over the past couple of weeks. The ancient glacial berg attracted tourists and locals alike this weekend on the historic Southern Shore. If you follow the Irish Loop road signs down the coast, the ice sculpture is an approximate 90 minute road trip from the capital city of St. John’s NL.
Icebergs have been a popular tourist attraction over the last few weeks as bergs float down the coastline from Greenland and the Arctic via “Iceberg Alley”. In fact, iceberg hunting is such a hot Spring activity, there was an iceberg finder app and website developed. Interested individuals are able to track the flow of bergs down the coast of the province. Spring 2023 is looking like it is going to be a large season for iceberg viewing on Canadas East Coast.
