Packages for Maine Moose Hunters

Although Maine has a healthy moose population, tight licensing and limited tags often make hunting opportunistic. Newfoundland is home to about 120,000 moose-the densest population in North America-and offers an 85% success rate for moose hunting in one of the wildest parts of the continent. If you’re a hunter from Maine looking for something truly unique, take a look at our moose hunting packages, designed to provide a seamless, trophy-quality adventure.

Packages for Maine Bear Hunters

The State of Maine has one of the biggest black bear populations in the United States. However, much of Maine’s forested land is privately owned, and hunters must secure permissions or leases in addition to buying a hunting license. Garia Bay provides a far better, more convenient alternative with access to remote, exclusive black bear hunting grounds. Without the private land complexities, Garia Bay offers an unforgettable hunting experience on Newfoundland’s unique terrain.

Newfoundland is rugged, remote, and diverse, offering a truly wild experience to the hunter. Dense boreal forests with mossy cover on the ground over roll to vast wetlands, towering cliffs, and crystal-clear lakes that serve as a backdrop for your hunt-are just stunning. The irregular topography is sometimes physically demanding because thick underbrush, uneven rocky ground, and marshy areas are very common.

The weather in Newfoundland can also add to the adventure because it goes from sunny into fog or rain in just a few moments. High winds, cooler temperatures, and unpredictable precipitation make it essential to come well-prepared with layered clothing and robust, waterproof gear. Despite these challenges, the rewards are huge: this wild and unruly land is teeming with wildlife, and the isolation enhances the thrill of the hunt. Our experienced guides will be with you through every step to ensure safe and effective navigation of the terrain for the success of this memorable experience.

While there are no guarantees in hunting, Newfoundland is renowned for its trophy-quality moose and black bears. Our guides have extensive knowledge of the area and can increase your chances of encountering a trophy-sized animal during your hunt.
