Salmonid Interpretation Centre

If you visit Grand Falls-Windsor during salmon migration (typically July, August, very early September), then you want to consider visiting the Salmonid Interpretation Centre.
You can see the salmon fighting against the current and jumping up the fish ladder to avoid the dam and reach the upper part of the river and.
You can even see salmon in a holding tank through a glass window.

Papa's Sweet Shop

Before you take the 5h drive to the Burin Peninsula, you may want to load up on some candy or some ice cream – maybe even some ice cream flavors that you have never even heard about.
Papa's Sweet Shop is the perfect place to do that – you cannot miss it - it is in the most colorful building in town.

This concludes your tour for today.
