Tips from the community

If you don’t have time to get outside St. John’s to see Newfoundland’s scenic fishing villages, Quidi Vidi (pronounced either “kitty viddy” or “quaidah vaidah” depending on which part of the city you’re from) is the next best thing. Located north of Signal Hill, Quidi Vidi is a historic village nestled in a rocky harbor.

It is also home to an artist’s colony, hiking trails, and a microbrewery housed in a former fish plant.
