Cupids is a town in Port de Grave, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. It is classified as a town. Cupids is located at 47.5478°N, 53.2245°W.
Cupids, cradled by the rugged coastline, is a place where the land itself seems to exhale the sea. It lies 6.5 km south-east of Bay Roberts, NL (from Bay Roberts, NL: bearing 127°T), and is situated 12.6 km north-north-west of Gallows Cove. Steep, green hills, often swathed in mist, tumble down towards the inky waters of Conception Bay, their slopes dotted with hardy, wind-bent spruce and the occasional cluster of salt-weathered homes. The air here carries a perpetual tang of brine and damp earth, a scent that clings to everything, from the weathered clapboard of the houses to the very stones underfoot. The light at dusk, when it breaks through the persistent cloud cover, can be a breathtaking spectacle, painting the sky in bruised purples and fiery oranges that reflect in the restless water, a fleeting moment of dramatic beauty in the otherwise subdued palette of the landscape. The history of Cupids is as deep and complex as the fishing grounds it once relied upon. Founded as one of the earliest English settlements in Newfoundland, its story is etched into the very character of the place, a resilience born from generations of facing the unforgiving Atlantic. While the once-thriving cod fishery has long since faded, the spirit of ingenuity persists, with a small but determined local economy now finding its footing in tourism and small-scale aquaculture, a testament to the enduring connection between the people and the sea. The remnants of old stone walls, choked with wild roses, whisper of lives lived and lost, a silent narrative woven into the fabric of this quiet corner of the Avalon Peninsula.
