Blog: Ferry Ride to Ramea, Newfoundland & Labrador 

By Peter Bull, Newfoundland and Labrador Tourism
While camping at Sandbanks Provincial Park in Burgeo, my family and I decided to take the ferry to the island of Ramea. What a perfect day trip. The ferry was inexpensive and the crossing about an hour and 20 minutes long. We walked off the ferry and hiked around the island and community of Ramea. The island has a beautiful walking trail along the coast to the lighthouse. On Ramea we met Linda, Bill and Shawn. Bill and Shawn are from Ontario, but have returned to Newfoundland every summer for the last 10 years. Shawn McNevin is an exceptional painter and she explained why she keeps coming back. As she says, Newfoundland and Labrador is a painters paradise and is forever.
