Prepare for a journey to the edge of the continent at Cape Race, a place where raw, windswept beauty meets profound history (I'm not kidding about the "windswept beauty", check out the videos I attached). This is where the first distress signal from the Titanic was received. The drive out here is an adventure in itself, along a gravel road that unveils stunning, rugged coastal vistas. Once you arrive, take your time to walk the grounds, breathe in the fresh salt air, and gaze out at the vast Atlantic – you might even spot whales or an iceberg drifting by. When I was there, I walked around the lighthouse and took a short hike to the Rookery Cliff. I also spotted whales and seals - try to count how many seals there were in the video I attached!
