Hey Red Bay … please note that we will be doing our fall flushing of our town water system on Wednesday, October 14th. You will notice some change in water pressure and discolouration. If you have shutoffs of any kind to help with the extra water pressure during our semi annual flushing, please be sure to use them on Wednesday. All should be complete by mid afternoon on Wednesday. As always, things should return to normal flow after some runoff. Our system will be winterized shortly after the flushing. Thank you so much for your understanding and cooperation. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Good Morning all! It’s a beautiful day in beautiful Red Bay! Huge shoutout to the passengers and crew of the National Geographic Explorer who visited yesterday. The wind and rain gave us a few challenges but from our experience here, you cannot dim the excitement and enthusiasm that the National Geographic Explorer brings with every single visit! 😊. It’s going to take a lot more than some wind and rain to dissuade these guys! It was an absolute pleasure NGE … see you next season !!!

And just confirmed with our equally adventurous friends at Adventure Canada, we’ll be welcoming the beautiful Ocean Victory in Red Bay tomorrow, October 8th for a full day excursion! We are so happy to work with our friends at Adventure Canada to make this visit possible. You guys RAWK !!! This will be Ocean Victory’s very first visit to Red Bay and we’ll be getting busy here today to ensure they get the fabulous welcome that the port of Red Bay is becoming known for!

WELCOME TO RED BAY OCEAN VICTORY !!!!

Viking Polaris !!! It was an absolute blast having you in Red Bay today! 😊. An absolutely beautiful fall day here in Southern Labrador and we had so much fun welcoming you! So much laughter at the dock … what awesome guests! We’ll certainly be looking forward to seeing you again next year. Safe sailing and THANK YOU for making our beautiful historic town a part of your itinerary! 😊

Next up … our awesome friends from the National Geographic Explorer. As a result of weather concerns, this ship will now be visiting tomorrow (as opposed to Wednesday which was originally scheduled). Can’t wait to see you again NGE !!! You’ll be the last ship in a successful and exciting 2026 cruise season. It’s been so much fun that we hate to see it come to an end, but a quick few months and we’ll be seeing you again, so it’s all good! 😊

WELCOME BACK TO RED BAY “NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC EXPLORER” 😊😊😊

Next up … the “Viking Polaris” tomorrow for a full day excursion.

WELCOME “VIKING POLARIS” 😊

Good morning Red Bay. As we are expecting cruise ships tomorrow, Monday, and Wednesday of this week, we kindly ask that all boats be moved away from the dock by 6:00pm this evening. As always, thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

EDIT/UPDATE: An update for this post and I would like to give a sincere apology to our very own Whalers Restaurant. 😞. When I did up this post, I was under the false impression that our restaurant was closed for the season. They have informed me however, that not only are they open this coming Sunday while our ships are here, but they will be open Monday and Wednesday as well while our other ships are visiting. This error is completely on me and I sincerely apologize for any confusion it may have caused!

So, please be assured that in addition to the information provided below, if you would like to enjoy the awesome deliciousness of Whalers Restaurant one more time before they actually do close for the season, drop into Red Bay on Sunday, Monday, or Wednesday of this coming week, when our ships are in port, and enjoy a wonderful meal and experience, as our 2026 season comes to a close.

**********************

Sunday, October 4/26 will be a “double ship” day Red Bay! 😃. Arriving for full day excursions are the beautiful “World Navigator”and “Star Pride”. How awesome is that? Weather forecast is looking promising for Sunday at the moment, so let’s hope that holds for us.

Our Whale Exibit will be open, Whalers Quest Ocean Adventures will be in full operation, and Quaint Quarters Cafe will be open for business at the waterfront, so we’re expecting an exciting Fall Sunday at the Dock !!!

Why don’t ya drop by sure ??? 😊. We’d all love to see you. The dock is restricted to Pedestrian traffic only while our guests are in port, but this is just for safety reasons and you are all still welcome to park your vehicle offsite and take a nice short leisurely stroll to the Dr. Tuck Building. Nice fresh/salty air in your lungs !!!

….And on Monday and Wednesday of next week, we’ll be right back at it with the Viking Polaris and National Geographic Explorer to close out our wonderful 2026 cruise season! More on those ships a little later !!!

See ya at the dock !!!! 😃😃🚢 🛳️
