It is mainly found in the relatively shallow water from south of Greenland, along side the North East coast of North America (Canada) to a few hundred miles south of Newfoundland. There at the edge of the Continental shelf, it meets the Gulf stream travelling north. The Labrador current has been known to go as far south as Bermuda and as far east as the Azores, but, that is usually not the case.
