Loon Bay is a scenic saltwater bay situated within the Bay of Exploits on the northeast coast of Newfoundland, near the communities of Comfort Cove-Newstead and Birchy Bay. This coastal region is characterized by a rugged, forested shoreline and a rich maritime heritage, evident in the local fishing community and fish processing plant. The bay offers a quintessential Newfoundland inshore fishing experience, where anglers can target classic North Atlantic species from shore or by boat amidst a backdrop of dramatic sunsets and, seasonally, passing icebergs along "Iceberg Alley."
