It may be tempting to plan a quick day trip across the water in the midst of your visit to Newfoundland, but a longer visit is key to seeing all the islands have to offer. If time allows, plan to stay at least two nights on Saint-Pierre and one night on Miquelon, and longer if you can. This will give you time to take in the unique mix of European and Canadian architecture, enjoy a delicious meal of French cuisine, practise your French in colourful shops, and explore all three of the archipelago’s islands, each with its own unique flavour. One thing is for certain: no matter how many days you decide to stay, you’ll always leave wishing you had at least one more!
