The Eastern Coastal Trail follows roughly the same route and we hiked it in a few different locations....great views and wonderful cliff tops to sit and watch the whales frolicking. The Loop is chock full of quaint fishing villages each with their own charm. The only drawback is the very rough (in areas) road - lots of potholes on the main road so just be aware and ENJOY!!

The driver best keep eyes on the road when viewing the scenery along the way. Interesting villages one after another. We did get a treat and saw an iceberg at the southern tip. Take your time and enjoy the ride...don't go if you're pressed for time as the road conditions and speed will drive you crazy.

However, the area is quite populated, so it can be challenging to find parking. Be sure to stop whenever you can to fully enjoy the experience.
