Photo: Fishing Boats St Anthony

A fleet of fishing boats are tied up to the dock in the harbour of St. Anthony on the Northern Peninsula of Newfoundland, Canada.

The waters off the tip of the northern peninsula of Newfoundland are rich fishing grounds for lobster, shrimp, crab and much more. Fishing boats line the dock in the St Anthony harbour, loaded with nets and traps at the ready for the next excursion out to sea.

Fishing was once a mainstay industry in St Anthony until fish stocks dwindled. Now tourism has become an important industry. Fishing boats still ply these waters, harvesting shellfish and other fish species.
