Port Hope Simpson Historic Logging Town in Canada is located on the
south side of the Alexis, an excellent salmon river in southern
Labrador. It was initially founded in 1934 as a logging camp and
was named after the English Commissioner of Natural Resources and
Acting-Commissioner of Justice, Sir John Hope Simpson. This
community has great natural assets nearby. Shinneys Water Complex
makes up 2,500 square kilometres of over 1000 islands rising
dramatically above sea level. These protected waters are ideal for
all types of boating. The Labrador Coastal Drive, Route 510 is the
southern driving route through this rugged and pristine region of
Labrador, Canada. Come here to discover a pure land on the edge of
the North Atlantic Ocean. Explore in the footsteps of ancient
mariners, and the Native Americans who long preceded them. Meet
today's residents and experience our heritage and the traditions
that tie us to this place. A full range of quality visitor services
are ready to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. Labrador
