In North America, they nest from Labrador/Newfoundland to the Northeastern United States. In Europe, they nest south to the Brittany Coast of France, northwards to Iceland, Greenland, and Northern Russia. Most of the world's puffins are found in Iceland, where sixty percent of the population breeds.
Puffins typically live in the northern hemisphere, in coastal areas of the Atlantic Ocean, such as the British Isles, Iceland, Norway, Greenland, and the Faroe Islands. They can also be found in the Pacific Ocean, in areas such as Alaska and Japan.
Puffins typically live in coastal regions of the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, on islands or along cliffsides. They are commonly found in places like Iceland, Norway, Scotland, and Canada. Puffins prefer to nest in burrows or crevices in rocky areas near the shore.
