From kissing the cod to catching greasy pigs at the largest garden party on the world, dancing to Shanneyganock in the capital city and hiking Terra Nova, this is the MUST list every Newfoundlander and Labradorian MUST have. From watching whales on the shore of St. Vincent's to the best bang-for-your-buck breakfast, it is all here.

We get Newfoundlanders and Labradorians from across the island to weigh in with their own MUST lists. Funny girl Mary Walsh, artist Brenda McClellan, Great Big Sea front man Alan Doyle, and Premier Danny Williams all have secret places you simply MUST visit. This is the ultimate insider MUST list. If you love Newfoundland, you simply MUST have the Newfoundland and Labrador Book of Musts.
