Brent's Cove is a pretty town built around a good sized harbour. It's the first town west of La Scie on the Baie Verte Peninsula. The road of Route 414 takes you to both Brent's Harbour and Harbour Round.

There is a very interesting rock formation on the west side of the entrance to the harbour. I have not found anything written about it. The rocky ridge looks to be missing a section. To me it looks like it may have been an arch that collapsed.

Just take a little drive around both sides of the harbour. There are lots of pretty spots to take some photos. If you are staying in La Scie, Brent's Cove is just a 15 minute drive.
