The best area to stay in L'Anse Aux Meadows is directly within the village of L'Anse Aux Meadows itself, or in the nearby community of St. Lunaire-Griquet.


L'Anse Aux Meadows village is home to the UNESCO World Heritage Site, featuring reconstructed Norse buildings and archaeological remains. This area is very small and quiet, with a few guesthouses and B&Bs scattered along the coastal road, often with views of the ocean. It's the most convenient option for those primarily visiting the historic site.


St. Lunaire-Griquet, just a short drive south of L'Anse Aux Meadows, offers a few more amenities. It's a slightly larger fishing village with a small grocery store, a couple of restaurants, and more accommodation options, including larger guesthouses and cottages. This area is ideal for travellers who appreciate being close to the main attraction but also want easy access to basic services and perhaps a bit more choice in dining.


For those interested in exploring the broader Northern Peninsula, staying in either of these locations provides a good base.

The best time to visit L'Anse aux Meadows is during the summer months, particularly from June to September.


This period offers the most favourable weather conditions for exploring the outdoor Viking settlement and surrounding natural beauty. Days are generally longer, with average temperatures ranging from 15°C to 20°C, making it comfortable for walking and outdoor activities. You'll find that all the interpretive centres and exhibits are fully operational and have extended hours during these months.


Families will find July and August especially good, as the weather is typically at its warmest, and there are often more interactive programmes and re-enactments at the UNESCO World Heritage site. This makes the historical experience more engaging for children.


For couples seeking a quieter experience with good weather, early June or mid-September can be ideal. The crowds are typically smaller, yet the weather remains pleasant for exploring the coastal trails and enjoying the scenic views.
