It was a clean, beautiful & peaceful town. Loved the scenery. Visited the lighthouse. Did the Twillingate Theatre Dinner. Absolutely fantastic! The food was delicious & the entertainment was fantastic. Very talented group of musicians.

We really didn’t plan enough time here. Would have liked to stay longer and explore more. The town is very pretty and the boat tour was amazing, even though we didn’t get lucky enough to see any whales or ice bergs. Plenty of birds and a lovely view everywhere.

The boat tour with Iceberg Quest company. Great captain and crew. Made sure we saw whales although distant, and as a bonus we also saw orcas close up. Very friendly, helpful crew. We’re able to book last minute which was great. No iceberg in August. Enjoyed eating at Annie’s on the deck by the water. It was our ‘go to’ place in Twillingate Visited the lighthouse but staff are not very enthusiastic about providing info here. It seemed overpriced to me given how little info it provided. It was a sharp contrast with the Bonavista lighthouse, where the staff was knowledgeable and happy to share information. However we still enjoyed our visit there. Bathe lighthouse area and walking paths are great. So worth visiting just for that. I would not pay to visit the lighthouse tower. We enjoyed the dinner theatre. A great fun evening! It was fully booked but the friendly people there were able to find a small table for us and we were very great full. Lobster dinner was great and the entertainment very lively and lots of fun. Price very reasonable. There are some nice local craft shops in Twillingate that we discovered by walking around the town. We found unusual wool carvings for family gifts. Many paths that we did not have time to walk through. Instead we drove around a loop where we stopped at every cove and discovered a unique little world in each of them and some friendly people. I would recommend going to Twillingate earlier in June or early July for the chance of seeing icebergs. We were there early august and the icebergs were gone.

My husband and I, and our dog, had a wonderful time. All the people we interacted with were friendly and helpful. The boat tour was remarkable and the cafe owner kept an eye on my dog while we were on the boat tour. I can't thank him enough. It wasn't easy to get around as many things didn't show up on our GPS, but we found out-of-the-way, pleasant villages.

Many icebergs of all sizes, close and far. Whales had not really arrived in great numbers, but others saw a few. Many restaurants are CASH only, or debit card. Doyle Sansome and sons, was the best food. D&T restaurant had very fresh mussels, rest of the food was so so. Annie's restaurant will not see us as return clients. Staff was very noisy and not very friendly. Bacon wrapped scallops were over cooked. Go to the Far Point Lighthouse and have a chat with Jonathon White in the Whites Emporium. Overall the people were fantastic and warm and welcoming.
