Deer Lake is all about salmon fishing and strawberries, both big and plentiful around here. Deer Lake lies on the #1 Trans-Canada Highway across Newfoundland, and is the exit point for all travellers heading to Gros Morne National Park, the islands Northern Peninsula, ferries to Labrador, the town of St Anthony and the L’Anse aux Meadows UNESCO World Heritage Site which protects the first viking settlement on North America.
