My wife and I, along with our two golden retrievers, had a great day last week on this trail. We decided to make an afternoon of it and do Sleepy Cove to the lighthouse and add on the lighthouse to Cuckholds Cove with a loop around at the end. Sleepy Cove is a is a beautiful trail that takes you out to the coastline and leads you up to the lighthouse. Great views from many angles. Some inclines, declines and steps. Someone in moderate physical condition would have no problem with this trail. It takes you to the steps that lead up to the lighthouse. Beautiful views up there as well. If you're going to add on the trek to Cuckhold's Cover, beware, there are a lot of incline and declines. I would not rate it difficult, but not moderate ether. But the views of the bay and harbour make the full loop the best option. We took our time and it with stopping for water breaks, photos, and enjoying the scenery, it was 5 hours total, 13 klm. It was too pretty to rush. Good sneakers are a must as there are lots of places you could slip. PS: Leave your car near the trail head of Lower Head Rd. if you do the full loop, you'll end up in front of the Crows Nest Café, where you'll find awesome coffee, cookies, and brownies. And you car is 5 minutes away.

Twillingate/NWI Dinner Thetatre is located in the heart of Twillingate, NL. Catering to locals and visitors alike, the dinner theatre provides great down home food and entertainment, six nights a week (Mon-Sat) between late May and late September. With a seating capacity of 184, the newly built theatre sits overlooking Shoal Tickle and shares property with Waterside Fish Market and Waterside Cottages. In walking distance from a bank, liquor store, Pharmacy, a number of Bed and Breakfasts, and restaurants. the dinner theatre is perfectly located. Patrons get to choose from lobster with mussels (when in season), cod, salmon or stuffed chicken breast. The theatre also offers gluten free and kids' menu and has a fully licensed bar, serving local and domestic beers, wines and spirits. The show is a variety of instrumental music, songs and skit comedy. Reservations are required and doors open at 5:00 PM. Dinner is served at 6PM and the show follows tea/coffee and dessert.
If you are looking for the friendliness of Newfoundland locals and outstanding food, this is the place to find it! The food (salmon) was served up hot & fast by cast and crew of the dinner theatre, and then we were entertained exuberantly by their talents and humour on the guitar, accordion, fiddle, banjo, tin whistle, the spoons and “Ugly Stick”! This local group communicates the passion of the people of Newfoundland with sincere songs and music perfectly to tourists who have “Come From Away!” Highly recommended!

Short drive from the center of town, plenty of parking and good viewing platforms to view the coastline. Great ice cream spot inside the lighthouse too!

Fantastic viewing including trips up to the inside of the lighthoue and the story of the Titanic. If you are lucky enough to see a pod of whales frolicking below its a fantastic sight. Watch fishermen working in their boats in the waters below the lighthouse. Close by is the fudge and gift shop. A must visit when in Twillingate.

A 5 km long trail to a resettled community, the home of Thomas Sugg, featuring two root cellars from the 1930s, a 20 foot Natural Arch, and scenic Jonas Cove. This trail is one of the most challenging in the area, and also features breathtaking views of the North Atlantic, sea birds, stone stacks, redolent and abundant forestry, peat bog and glaciated landscape.
