Christopher Pratt wrote:
"The Strait of Belle Isle is the only place where you can see the continent of North America from the island of Newfoundland; where you get that wonderful offshore feeling, and know that this place has a definition more natural, more precise than arbitrary, legislated parallels and longitudes - the meeting, all around, of land with sea. In the winter, great wild places like the Strait of Belle Isle come into their own."
