Chaleur Bay is one of the named natural bays in the wild country north of Francois. For visitors, it matters less as a beach destination than as a reason to push beyond the village and see how quickly the south-coast landscape becomes empty.
Treat it as a serious walk or arranged outing. The ground can be wet, fog can erase distance, and trails may be rough. In good conditions, the reward is solitude and a coastline that feels almost untouched.
