Donelda's Puffin Boat Tours is one of the 100 Must-See Destinations in Unforgettable Atlantic Canada! On the 2 1/2 - 3 hour boat tour you'll be amazed at the beautiful rock formations on the way to the Islands , a stop to look at an old sea cave as well as a stop or two to feed some Bald Eagles.

Wreck Cove General Store

Reviewed By Z9525OGls

We actually bypassed this earlier in the day because The Dancing Moose down the road won out (a mistake—see my review) and there was a lineup outside. So, we stopped by on our return trip. Small store, but it had the basics we needed; the gift shop has reasonably-priced souvenirs; and the lobster sandwiches were simple, but delicious. The cashier was friendly and helpful, so that was a nice palate-cleanser from our service experience at the Dancing Moose. If you’re looking for gourmet food, this place isn’t it, but it definitely hit the spot and we would happily stop in again
