About this Venue
Fogo Island Inn is an award-winning, 29-suite hotel located on the northern shore of Fogo Island in Newfoundland, Canada. It is renowned for its striking modernist architecture, which blends traditional outport design with contemporary sensibilities, and offers floor-to-ceiling views of the North Atlantic Ocean. The Inn operates as a social business, with 100% of its operating surpluses reinvested into the local community through Shorefast, a Canadian charity dedicated to building economic and cultural resilience on Fogo Island. It emphasizes sustainable practices, local sourcing of food and handcrafted furnishings, and offers an immersive cultural and nature-based guest experience across the island's seven seasons.

The Inn adheres to an 80/20 rule for food sourcing, with 80% of ingredients fished, farmed, hunted, or harvested from Newfoundland and Labrador.
