Bay de Verde is the northernmost community in Conception Bay in Newfoundland. It has a base population of approximately 400 residents. The first recorded inhabitants at Bay de Verde arrived in 1662. Bay de Verde became an incorporated town in 1950.

The central part of the picturesque fishing village is nestled between two hills. On both sides, the low-lying area gently slopes towards the ocean. On the southwestern side is the harbour (called the ‘foreside’). That’s  where fishing boats are moored – away from the land and wharfs.
