Southern Harbour delivers wide-open ocean views, working wharves, and a relaxed pace that many people only dream about. Tucked along Placentia Bay, the community enjoys quick access to the highway, with everyday needs close at hand in nearby Arnold's Cove and employment opportunities at the evolving energy hub in Come By Chance through Braya Renewable Fuels. For more shopping, government services, and restaurants, residents look to Placentia and Clarenville, while a day trip to St. John's keeps big-city arts, dining, and air travel within reach.
Life here leans into the shoreline—launch a boat for cod during the food fishery, spot whales and seabirds from the headlands, or walk quiet roads that trace sheltered coves. History buffs can explore the French and English story of Placentia at the impressive Castle Hill National Historic Site, managed by Parks Canada, a worthwhile excursion in any season. Community events, church suppers, and come-home-year gatherings add warmth to long summer evenings and brighten winter weekends.
Families appreciate K–12 options in the region, including schools in Arnold’s Cove and Placentia, and post‑secondary choices like the College of the North Atlantic’s Clarenville campus. Healthcare, trades, and marine industries anchor local employment, augmented by the Port of Argentia and regional energy projects. Whether you’re searching for an oceanfront lot, a restored saltbox, or a modern build with a bay view, Agent Pronto can introduce you to top real estate agents who know Southern Harbour inside and out—for both buying and selling.
