Sail Bonne Bay aboard a catamaran while a guide explains how the ochre, barren Tablelands are exposed 450-million-year-old earth mantle — one of only a few places on the planet where you can walk on it.
What to expect
The EMM-CAT departs from Norris Point and cruises past Woody Point toward the Tablelands, with the captain and crew pointing out the stark, rust-coloured peridotite mountains that support almost no plant life. Onboard commentary covers the region's Gondwana-era origins and the fjord's formation. Some sailings include a tongue-in-cheek Screech-In ceremony inducting passengers as honorary Newfoundlanders.
Good to know
Confirm the 2pm departure (the most popular) against your all-aboard time; book directly with Bon Tours as sailings fill quickly in peak season.
