If you need an extra half an hour to rest your legs while driving around the Irish Loop / Baccalieu Loop, I recommend stopping here for a short beautiful boardwalk stroll. Nestled at the head of Conception Bay, Holyrood is a charming seaside town that offers a taste of Newfoundland life. You'll find a lovely beach and boardwalk perfect for a leisurely stroll, and the rugged coastal scenery. The town is especially lively in the late spring and early summer when the caplin roll and the annual Squid Fest takes over, drawing locals and visitors for days of music and celebration.
