Boats at Ferryland, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada

Ferryland is a town in Newfoundland and Labrador on the Avalon Peninsula, was originally established as a station for migratory fishermen in the late 16th century. By the 1590s it was one of the most popular fishing harbours in Newfoundland and acclaimed by Sir Walter Raleigh.

The town was destroyed by New France in the Avalon Peninsula Campaign (1696). Virtually forgotten for centuries, excavations of the original settlement began in earnest in the late 1980s and continue to this day.

The site of the 17th-century Colony of Avalon was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1953[3] It was also designated a Municipal Heritage District in 1998.

Today, this area is known as the Irish heart of Newfoundland and Labrador. Irish traditions, attitudes, and music continue to thrive here.
