Timeline
10:30
Walk through the Fluvarium. The centre is open and quiet this early, giving you space to read about the river’s ecology without jostling for space.
11:00
Walk to the MUN Bookstore to pick up a local title or map. It opens at 10:30 on weekdays, so you will be there just as it starts its day. The walk from the Fluvarium is short and straightforward.
11:30
Head to Rocket Bakery for a warm pastry or a light lunch. It is open from 08:30 to 18:00, so you have plenty of time to sit and enjoy the food before the afternoon rush.
12:15
End your outing at Quintana's for a drink or a late snack. The Fluvarium area offers a relaxed finish to a slow morning walk.
Local tip
The MUN Bookstore is closed on Sundays. If you are visiting on a weekend, swap the bookstore for a browse at Rocket Bakery or a coffee at MajesTea, both of which are open daily.
