Our Communities: Irish Loop

The prologue and first leg of Targa take place on the Irish Loop just south of St. John’s. The Irish Loop is the heart of Irish culture and heritage in Newfoundland and Labrador harkening back to the first settlers from Ireland in the 1600s. The Irish Loop begins in Bay Bulls and takes you on a journey along the coastline of the weathered Southern Shore through countless small fishing settlements such as Tors Cove, Burnt Cove, Bauline East and more.
