Newfoundland is accessible via:

• Marine Atlantic's Ferry Service from North Sydney, Nova Scotia to Port-aux-Basques, Newfoundland or Argentia, Newfoundland.

• Several major airports, with the larger being St. John’s, Gander (central) and Deer Lake (west coast). St. John’s is serviced by Air Canada and several regional airlines, as well as some international carriers.

Coming from St. John’s
From St. John’s, head west on the Trans Canada Highway. As you begin to approach Come By Chance, you will first pass the exit overpass to Arnold’s Cove. Keep a watch, as the exit to Come By Chance is only a few minutes away. As you approach, you will find the exit is on a short divided highway, with the exit to the town of Sunnyside on the right hand side, and the exit to Come By Chance on the left. Be careful making the left hand turn across highway traffic, and enjoy your visit to our town!

Coming from the West
If arriving via Port aux Basques, Come By Chance is approximately 8 1/2 hour drive – if heading straight across. But take your time…there’s plenty to see in our beautiful province. Come By Chance is just 2 hours from Gander, and 40 minutes from the Eastern Gateway to Terra Nova National Park. When approaching Come By Chance from the west, the exit will be on your right hand side. Simply take this exit and enter into our pretty little town.
