About Bay Bulls

The town of Bay Bulls is located on the Southern Shore of the Avalon Peninsula. It is approximately 30km from St. John's, and is one of the oldest settlements in Newfoundland.

Bay Bulls first appeared on a map drawn by Thomas Hood in 1592. The origin of the town's name is somewhat a mystery. Some Historians believe it originated from the French "Baie de Bois," meaning "Wooded Bay," while others believe the name came from the "Bull Bird" or Dovekie which nested in and around the settlement.
