Dunville

Tucked along the Northeast Arm of Placentia Bay, Dunville is a community whose character is shaped by the sheltered saltwater inlet and the low, wooded terrain of Newfoundland’s Avalon Peninsula. It is one of the communities within the Town of Placentia, where daily life remains closely connected to the bay rather than to the province’s larger urban centres. The shoreline leads toward Placentia’s historic core and Castle Hill National Historic Site, whose fortifications recall the era of French colonial presence in Newfoundland. Dunville provides a useful starting point for following the quieter roads around the bay and getting a sense of this southern Newfoundland coast.
