Immerse Yourself in the Story of the Sea and Coastal Communities

The Bonne Bay Marine Station on Newfoundland’s breath-taking west coast was first dedicated to expanding knowledge of marine ecology. We now strive to be: Multidiscplinary, Community-Engaged, Research Building, Experiential and leaders in Outreach.

Nestled in a quaint coastal community, this facility offers a host of services to students, researchers, educators and the general public.

The station is surrounded by Gros Morne National Park, the Bonne Bay area exhibits unparalleled diversity of habitat, marine plants, fish and invertebrates. This diversity cannot be matched anywhere else in north-eastern North America.

It has hosted and supported research, community-engaged research and training in the social and natural sciences, with involvement of humanists and artist and a focus on west coast Newfoundland communities and the Northern Gulf of St. Lawrence.
