Fermeuse

Little harbour hamlet on Newfoundland's Avalon Peninsula, Fermeuse has sheltered fishing vessels since Portuguese sailors used it as a summer station in the 1500s — early maps record it as R. Fermoso. The long, naturally protected harbour remains central to the community, and the surrounding coastline offers hiking trails, including access to the East Coast Trail, with Atlantic Ocean views and bird-watching opportunities.
