Fogo Island
in Newfoundland and Labrador

A place that feel truly remote. Fogo Island sits off the edge of Newfoundland, its charm shaped by a long fishing history that still defines daily life. Stark, modern architecture stands in quiet contrast to traditional wooden houses, all set against raw Atlantic views.
