Port
de Grave has two entrances: from Bay Roberts by Route 72
and from Clarke’s Beach through “The Otterbury,”
the more scenic route. Artists and photographers love Port de
Grave!
Ship Lights at Christmas
The Marina offers state of the art facilities with deep water,
making it one of the safest harbours on the east coast. The wheelchair
accessible Morgan Hawe Memorial Harbour Authority Building has
a spectacular view of the harbour. It offers services to sailors
and tourist information.
Port
de Grave Marina
The
Fishermen's Museum was started in 1969. The nearby Porter House
is furnished as a typical fisherman's home of the early 1900s.
Artifacts include fishing equipment, tools, kitchen utensils,
and models of various types of boats used in the inshore fishery.
An adjacent one-room schoolhouse has also been restored.
