Day 6 - Wednesday, June 22. Driving distance: 310 km (+ ferry distance of 35km)

On day 6 of our road trip, we continued south along a potholed 510 until the town of Red Bay, where the pavement returns. We then drove along the southern Labrador Coast, coming to the end of the Trans-Labrador and entering briefly into Quebec at the town of Blanc Sablon. From Blanc Sablon, we took a ferry that brought us to the community of St. Barbe, Newfoundland, on highway 430.
