I visited Grand Bruit (pronounced
Grand Brit) with my
daughter in September 2000 during a side trip along the Newfoundland south coast from
Sydney Nova Scotia. The town is now unoccupied and the
population have been resettled.
When we visited it seemed to be
one of the prettiest and best kept outports in
the whole of Newfoundland.

The town is split
by this waterfall and there is a
series of lakes above the falls. Good walking around here.
The population was about 40 which doubled in the
summer. Grand Bruit is unusual in that there are a number of summer residents from outside
Newfoundland. |
