Welcome to Patrick's Cove
 

                                We 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 harbour.  This was a great contrast to the
                                grassy marshlands that supported sheep, goats, horses and
                                cows in neighouring 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.
