''Not to be confused with Brighton in the United Kingdom'' Eastport is a long-popular Newfoundland vacation destination on the Eastport Peninsula. Eastport is located on the north-western border of Terra Nova National Park and is famed for its sandy beaches, beautiful scenery and traditional Newfoundland outport heritage. ==About Eastport== Originally known as ''Salvage Bay'', ''Salvage New'', and ''Brighton'', it eventually became known as Eastport due to it being on the east side of Salvage Bay. In the early 1960s, under the resettlement program, several families from Flat Island and Coward’s Island moved to Eastport. They brought with them their own unique culture which added a new and interesting dimension to the community. During the last weekend of July/first weekend of August, the annual SeaFest is held on the beach. Canadian radio host Michael Enright calls the walk from Eastport to Salvage the most beautiful in the world.〔http://www.cbc.ca/thesundayedition/shows/2013/06/09/podcast-2/〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eastport, Newfoundland and Labrador」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
