Bonavista iceberg bonanza wow locals, tourists

Locals and tourists are flocking to the Bonavista Peninsula to see the amazing number of icebergs lined up along the coast.

When the CBC's Lee Pitts and Peter Cowan drove down to have a look this weekend, they discovered the first bergs near Plate Cove. As they travelled toward the the town of Bonavista, the bergs became bigger and more plentiful.

When they ended up at Cape Bonavista, there were more than 70 icebergs dotting the horizon.

Watch the video for magnificent scenes of the icebergs.
