Arriving by Car and Ferry
Visitors from the mainland (Canada or the U.S.) may choose to drive
to North Sydney, Nova Scotia, and take a ferry run by Marine
Atlantic (www.marine-atlantic.ca).The ferry to Port-aux-Basques takes approximately 8 hours, but you will have another 10-hour drive to cross the island to St. John's.
The ferry to Argentia takes approximately 14 hours and takes you to within a 1.5 hour drive of St. John's.
Book well in advance!
