Stop 1: O'Reilly House Museum
A house museum run by the Placentia Area Historical Society, a nonprofit and registered charity. The Society dates the area's occupation to the 1500s and records Placentia as the French capital in Newfoundland from 1662 to 1713, and later an English capital too. It says the museum opens for the summer tourist season and sometimes longer, so check with them before planning around a date.
Stopping here adds 0.4 km to the drive.

The crossing you arrive onSeasonal — Argentia is not the year-round crossing
Port aux Basques runs through the winter; Argentia does not. Confirm the sailing first, because the other landing is on the far side of the island.
