Grand Bruit

02.jpg (39327 bytes) I visited Grand Bruit with my daughter in September 2000 during a side trip along the Newfoundland south coast from Sydney Nova Scotia.

Surely one of the prettiest and best kept outports in the whole of Newfoundland.

The locals will really appreciate it if you pronounce the name "Grand Brit"

 
The town is split by this waterfall and there is a series of lakes above the falls. Good walking around here.

The population is about 40 which doubles in the summer. Grand Bruit is unusual in that there are a number of summer residents from outside Newfoundland.

Not only is the church beautifully preserved but so is the firehall next to it.

There are no roads in Grand Bruit and the paths wind between houses with flower beds and well kept lawns.

This is a very pretty town.

We are sitting on the ferry wharf with Meriah in the background.

There is not much room to anchor but you can tie to the ferry wharf on the east side or the fish wharf on the west.
