Corner Brook, the garden city and hub of enriched history is located on the western shores of Newfoundland, at the mouth of the Bay of Islands. With a spectacular combination of ocean and mountain scenery, four seasons, and friendly people, Corner Brook is known around the world as both a popular tourist attraction and one of the best places to live, work, and do business. The area was first surveyed by renowned explorer Captain James Cook, and the Captain James Cook Monument stands as a testament to a proud chapter in his exploratory career.
