Island Cove

Island Cove is a tiny cove situated on Cormack Drive. This charming site acts as a sanctuary for seagulls, robins, sparrows, Canada geese and greater yellow leg sea birds. Benches and picnic tables are placed in selected areas along the trail to provide an unobstructed view of the ocean, the rock walls, the beaches, and the meadow of natural grasses.

This site has been a project of the Clarenville Heritage Society
