one of the best places in the world to view icebergs. Just off the coast, the meeting of the cool Labrador Current and the warm Gulf Stream creates an abundance of marine life that attracts thousands of whales, and provides rich nesting grounds for millions of seabirds. To put things in perspective, Newfoundland and Labrador is a little smaller than California, slightly bigger than Japan, and twice the size of the entire United Kingdom. Geography The island of Newfoundland covers 111,390 square kilometres. With the addition of the vast territory of Labrador, the province covers a total area of 405,212 square kilometres, and has more than 29,000 kilometres of unspoiled coastline. Nature Newfoundland and Labrador is one of the best places to see nature in all its glory. Coastlines, thick forests, ancient rock formations, seabird colonies, tiny alpine blossoms, and rich marine life are all part of diverse natural heritage
