The Admiral's Coast starts just west of St. John's, hugging the heart of Conception Bay as it makes its way to northern Conception Bay's Baccalieu Trail. Demographically, it's one of the province's youngest and fastest growing areas but it has a history as long and deep as any in the province. Hundreds of years of history can be found in the gentle coastline and the green hills overlooking the peaceful bay.
