Sunnyside is best known within Newfoundland and Labrador for its proximity to the Bull Arm fabrication site, where the Hibernia gravity base structure was built. The community sits on Northwest Arm, an inlet of Trinity Bay, near the Trans-Canada Highway on the Avalon Peninsula. Bull Arm became a major centre of offshore oil construction in the 1990s; the immense concrete structure for the Hibernia field was towed from here to its offshore location in 1997. Sunnyside remains a useful stop on the route between the peninsula’s larger centres and the bays of eastern Newfoundland, with wooded shorelines and sheltered water shaping its setting.
