Humber Arm South. Tucked along the south shore of the Bay of Islands, this coastal town delivers sweeping ocean views, working wharves, and an easy pace of life just a short drive from Corner Brook. On weekends, residents launch boats for a morning on the water or head west along the Captain Cook’s Trail to explore the rugged coastline and windswept lookouts. A favourite day trip, the trails and beaches of Blow Me Down Provincial Park reward with big scenery and quiet coves, while winter brings powder days at Marble Mountain.
Families appreciate practical conveniences: K–12 options are available in town and nearby, with post-secondary choices close at hand at Memorial University’s Grenfell Campus and the amenities of a regional centre, including care at Western Memorial Regional Hospital. History buffs can take in panoramic harbor views from the Captain James Cook Historic Site, and outdoor enthusiasts can access the multi-use Newfoundland T’Railway Provincial Park for snowmobiling, cycling, and ATVing across the island. Travel is straightforward, with year-round services in Deer Lake and an international airport within comfortable reach.
Housing ranges from tidy ocean-view bungalows to larger family homes on generous lots, and many properties offer backyard access to trails or sheltered inlets.
