Tucked along Trepassey Bay on Newfoundland’s southern Avalon Peninsula, Trepassey is a place whose character is shaped by its sheltered harbour and exposure to the North Atlantic. The community sits on a coast of headlands, coves and changing weather, where the sea has long directed travel, work and settlement. Fishing remains central to local identity, while the peninsula continues toward Cape Race, a prominent Atlantic headland. Trepassey also has a place in aviation history: in 1928, the Fokker Friendship departed its harbour on the flight that made Amelia Earhart the first woman to cross the Atlantic by air.
