Today the community has a population of approximately 400. This number fluctuates due to out-migration, and people returning from seasonal employment outside the town.

As the name of the community implies, narrow bodies of water wind among coves and inlets and eventually lead to the opening of the Notre Dame Bay. Leading Tickles is practically located in the iceberbg alley. Every spring and summer huge icebergs ground themselves upon our shores, easily accessible to picture taking and sight seeing. Our bay is also prime feeding ground for whales, seals and dolphins.

At the end of town you will find the entrance to Oceanside Nature Trail. This trail is for nature lovers. The trail is approximately 3kms and has some boardwalk. You are given a coastal view as you hike aong this trail.

A trip to Leading Tickles would not be complete without visiting Oceanview Park and Jack Ward Memorial General Store Heritage Centre.

The beauty of the area, the rugged coast-line and the breathtaking sites of nature at its best, is the major asset of our Town.
