Lonely Planet review for Sloop's Cove
Four kilometers south of the fort, Sloop's Cove was a harbor for European vessels during Churchill's harsh winters. The only indications of early explorers are simple yet profound: names such as Samuel Hearn, local 18th-century governor and first to make an overland trip to the Arctic Ocean, are carved into the seaside rocks.
