About

The site is located at the base of the Twillingate Lighthouse. It was a managed campsite at one point, but it is now free. A century ago, this was a copper mine, and while all that’s left is the crimson and yellow painted remnants of machinery, they are all a silent witness of the short-lived industrial activity some time ago.
