Tour Memory Lane Heritage Village on your own, then spend
two hours with a local fisherman in Memory Lane’s fish store learning how to construct a traditional lobster trap. Your fisherman guide will show you how to knit a “heading”,
bend the bows, weight the trap and install the bait spike. While constructing
the trap, hear the stories of struggles and triumphs on the sea, and how
modern fishing has improved upon traditional gear.
All that work should create an appetite for our famous and sizable “Cookhouse Chow” in
the 1940s Cookhouse on site. Spend the rest of the day touring the local
area, and see the still working fishing communities and wharves of East
Jeddore, Owls Head and Little Harbour. Enjoy a 10% discount on local
accommodation as part of this package.
