COME VISIT ST. LAWRENCE

St. Lawrence is a tight-knit community located at the edge of the Burin Peninsula of Newfoundland. We’re supportive, caring, and work together to grow our town. The stunning south coast of Newfoundland plays host to history, culture, and vistas like no other. From deep roots in mining and fishing culture, to fearless and selfless acts of charity, St. Lawrence is resurging as a must-visit destination with the people being the highlight of every trip.

VISIT ST. LAWRENCE AND EXPLORE ALL WE HAVE TO OFFER

Come kick a ball in the Soccer Capital of Canada, visit the Miners Memorial Museum and unearth the history of a small mining town, walk our miles of trails, and stop for a moment and consider the storm that grounded two American war ships and the desperate attempts to save the hundreds of men floundering in the waves in 1942.

St. Lawrence offers experiences like no other, including Island Rock Jewellery and Crafts, where you can see how we create the stunning jewellery made of fluorite mined from our own hills, while employing persons with intellectual disabilities, or pop by the LunchTin Cafe, where you can enjoy home-cooked traditional Newfoundland cuisine.

Our beaches are unrivaled, our picturesque cliffs and oceanside trails will have photographers in awe, and our town’s people will welcome you with open arms.

OUR STORY

Since the 1500s, St. Lawrence has been welcoming visitors to its stunning harbour, opening its doors and sharing its stories with people from around the world. Since then, we’ve become soccer champions, survived a tsunami, rescued American sailors during the Second World War, served as home to a major mining operation, and weathered the storms of countless fishing seasons. St. Lawrence is resurging as a must-visit destination with the people, our stories, and culture being the highlight of every trip.
