Adventure on the Labrador Peninsula

The Labrador Peninsula, is a large peninsula east of Canada. It is surrounded by Bay Hudson to the west, the Labrador Sea to the east and the Gulf of San Lorenzo to the south east. Front of Isla Newfoundland, this peninsula is a practically uninhabited stretch of land whose fishing villages can be visited by taking the different ferries that leave from St, Barbe to the town of Blanc Sablon, on the border with the region of Quebec.

Here the Torngat mountains stand out, which cross it from north to south, constituting the backbone. Its coasts are very rugged with a large number of bays, inlets and rivers formed by glacial erosion and the movements of the inlandsis that covered the territory during the grace periods, the same glaciations -as in most of Canada- have also left numerous lakes.

Among the bays, the bay stands out ungava, in the north of the great peninsula. Its climate is extremely continental in the south, towards the north it is sub-arctic; the east coast receives the cold influence of the farmer, which practically cancels the moderating effects of the ocean. Without a doubt, a region for adventure tourism.
