Summer Sea Term 2026: Ship Departure from St. John's, NL
In Port: St. John’s, Newfoundland & Labrador 🇨🇦
As the only international port call of Summer Sea Term 2026, St. John’s has provided unforgettable opportunities for exploration, learning, and adventure.
For sunrise, Capt. Mac led a group of students on a hike to the ...top of Signal Hill, where they were rewarded with breathtaking views overlooking the Atlantic and the entrance to St. John’s Harbour. Another group of students took on the challenge of hiking approximately 12 miles along the East Coast Trail to Cape Spear, the easternmost point in North America.
While ashore, students, faculty, staff, and crew visited the Marine Institute of Memorial University, one of North America’s premier maritime education and training centers. The institute features world-class ship bridge and engine room simulators, as well as the world’s largest flume tank, where researchers and industry partners test vessel designs, fishing gear, and marine technologies in controlled conditions. Like Maine Maritime Academy, the Marine Institute is a proud member of the International Association of Maritime Universities (IAMU), sharing a commitment to advancing global maritime education and training.
The visit also included a tour of the Canadian Coast Guard station, providing students with an up-close look at the vessels, personnel, and operations that help keep Canada’s waters safe.
From rugged coastal trails to world-class maritime facilities, St. John’s has been a remarkable stop on this year’s voyage.
