Tucked along Route 440 on the North Shore of the Bay of Islands, Meadows is a peaceful coastal town with front-row views of the Blomidon Mountains and the shimmering Humber Arm, Meadows is a place where locals gather to watch cruise ships sailing by. From hiking and snowmobiling trails to a lighthouse-topped beach and frequent wildlife sightings, this is a year-round spot for quiet adventure. Whether you’re exploring the shoreline or just soaking in the view, Meadows welcomes you with open arms—and plenty of photo ops.
