We have finally reached the community of Patrick's Cove, 
located on the Cape Shore. This community is said to 
be the most beautiful place on the shore. Patrick's Cove 
was a fishing community on the Cape Shore. Patrick's 
Cove is built on both sides of a steep river valley which 
frames a small harbor. This was a great contrast to the 
grassy marshlands that supported sheep, goats, horses and 
cows in neighboring communities. The cove and the 
community were originally known as Devil's Cove. It was 
renamed in about 1840, reportedly after a grandson of the 
first settler. In 1857 there were 29 people in Patrick's 
Cove. From then on the population gradually increased, 
approaching 100 people by 1921. Many people have 
noted the strong Irish ties and roots of Patrick's Cove. 
So come follow me and we will tour Patrick's Cove 
together.
