The eastern coastline of Canada is mysterious and magnificent. The first Europeans to reach the Americas were Vikings, one of the most renown of which was Leif Ericson. I can’t remember if this slab is in Newfoundland or on Cape Breton. But when I first discovered this place! The region is wave rich, and it’s the next destination beyond Nova Scotia.

A nordic depiction of this spot in the northern coastal region of Canada:

The access point to this wave (breaking on top of a shallow slab of rocks) is right down there where the stairs meet the water. The red crane is also useful for moving heavier vessels in and out of the sea.
