Great location for exploring St. Vincent’s Beach and Mistaken Point. The beach was beautiful and is full of colorful pebbles and rocks. We missed the whales (no capalin to feed on at the time). We did a few hikes at Mistaken Point, which were beautiful. We arrived too late to take the guided hikes, but enjoyed the scenery tremendously. We had a wonderful dinner at Edge of the Avalon Inn. The house is a great location for exploring the area.
