Newfoundland Come to the place where the New World begins. Feel the power of the Atlantic as it meets North America for the first time. It happens right here at Cape Spear. Where Newfoundland's oldest surviving lighthouse has stood for 16 decades. Where the wind warms your soul and where you're closer to Ireland's Cape Clear than Ontario's Thunder Bay. Come to the city that started it all, the first in the New World. Come to St. John's and take a walk on Water Street, the oldest street in North America. Look out over a naturally-sheltered harbour, where 40 vessels lay anchored 40 years before the Mayflower landed. Raise a glass in a place that boasted over 80 pubs before the Americans began their battle for independence. Now that's history.
