On the southwestern tip of the Avalon Peninsula is one of the most spectacular seabird colonies in the western world. Extending along 125 ft. cliffs for more than 3 miles are the nesting sites of several species of seabirds. In addition to gannets, thick-billed murres, razerbill murres, and black guillemots, these steep mainland cliffs are the breeding territory of 10,000 nesting pairs of kittiwakes.
