Car Rental Newfoundland and Labrador

Newfoundland and Labrador, along with nine other provinces and three territories, makeup Canada's thirteen federal entities. With 405,512 km², it is the fourth-smallest entity, larger only than New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island. The population of the province is estimated (in 2021) to be around 521,542 inhabitants. It is the third least densely populated, ahead of Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut.

Located in the northeast of the country, this province is made up of two different areas. Labrador is located on the Labrador Peninsula. It borders the Labrador Sea to the east and the province of Quebec to the west and south. Newfoundland is an island located in the northeastern region of North America. It is surrounded by the North Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Gulf of San Lorenzo to the west.

When the Dominion of Newfoundland joined the confederation in 1949, the province became known as Newfoundland. Since 1964, the province's government has referred to itself as the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador. On December 6, 2001, an amendment to the Canadian Constitution was passed to change the province's name to Newfoundland and Labrador. To pronounce the names like a native, stress the last syllables, as in NewfoundLAND and LabraDOR.

Newfoundland has its own dialects of English, French, Irish, and other languages. The English dialect of Labrador shares much with that of Newfoundland. On the other hand, Labrador has its own dialects of Innu-Aimun and Inuktitut.

Newfoundland and Labrador Car Rental Travel Inspiration

St. John's is the capital city, not to be confused with the city of Saint John's in New Brunswick. Around roughly one-fifth of Newfoundland's population lives here, and is a lively city with provincial charm.

Around the island's jagged coastline are towns and remote old fishing villages. Tourists are attracted to the stunning scenery, marine life, and exceptional bird watching sites. Set aside some time to hike the numerous nature trails along the magnificent coastline.

There are plenty of historical sites that are worth visiting. Some include the first known Viking settlement, the first European explorers' landing sites, the landmarks of the first flight pioneers, and the tangible relics of prehistoric populations.

The island of Newfoundland is the easternmost part of Canada, while Labrador's vast region is largely inaccessible. Newfoundland and Labrador's varied landscape was shaped by the ice ages, leaving a jagged shoreline of deep fjords and high coastal cliffs that plunge into the sea. Inland is covered with wilderness and woodland, dotted with lakes and inhabited by elk and herds of caribou.

Due to its location near the "Grand Banks," which is one of the richest fishing grounds in the world, the island's main livelihood source was cod fishing. This was until foreign vessels reduced the cod population and destroyed the habitat, leading the Canadian government to impose a suspension.
