The town of Port aux Basque, Newfoundland, was first settled in the early 1500s by local fisherman who would use the area's relatively calm harbor as a safe haven but would not see year-round inhabitants until nearly 200 years later. The town is now known as the hub of Southern Newfoundland and is home to several shopping centers, museums and ferries to nearby locations.
The Hotel Port aux Basques first opened its doors to guests in 1941 and offers government-rated three-star accommodations in the heart of Port aux Basques.
