Terrington Basin is a coastal bay located in Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Labrador. It is part of the larger Goose Bay area and is situated near the town's wharf. The basin is a recognized location for paddle sports, including canoeing, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding. A specific, mapped route called the Terrington Basin Paddle is approximately 5.3 miles in length and is rated as a moderate trail. The overall character of paddling here is one of calm, scenic beauty, with a "calm day for a late season paddle" suggesting conditions can be favorable for a relaxed experience. The surrounding area is characterized by pristine wilderness and abundant wildlife, offering paddlers a natural setting. The town of Happy Valley-Goose Bay is noted for its cultural heritage and history, which may be of interest to visitors. Paddlers should always check if a permit is required before launching, as regulations can change. The presence of a wharf and the M/V Northern Ranger being based there indicates this is an active marine area, so paddlers should be prepared for potential boat traffic, especially near the wharf and any defined channels.
