Goblin is a locality in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Goblin is located at 47.7196°N, 56.0958°W.
Goblin rests in a fold of Newfoundland's rugged western coast, where the land rises in a series of low, rounded hills, their slopes carpeted in a dense, resilient scrub and punctuated by stands of wind-battered spruce. It lies 25.4 km south-west of St. Alban's, NL (from St. Alban's, NL: bearing 227°T), and is situated 18.1 km north-west of Gaultois. The air here carries the bracing tang of salt and the damp, earthy scent of peat, a constant reminder of the proximity of the Atlantic. Tiny, bright wildflowers, tenacious against the elements, push through the stony soil, their colours a vibrant counterpoint to the muted greens and browns of the terrain. The sky overhead often shifts with remarkable speed, from a vast, luminous blue to a brooding grey, the light catching the mist that can shroud the hills in an instant, lending the landscape an ethereal, almost otherworldly quality. The history of Goblin is etched into its very character, a testament to the hardy souls who first settled this remote corner of the island. Fishing, naturally, formed the bedrock of its economy for generations, the small boats that once dotted the harbour a familiar sight, bringing in their daily catches of cod and other bounty from the cold, rich waters. Though the fishing industry has seen its shifts and changes, the spirit of self-reliance and resourcefulness remains. The quiet hum of generators and the occasional distant bark of a dog are the prevailing sounds, punctuated by the cry of gulls overhead. Scattered among the scattered homes are the remnants of older ways, the weathered stones of foundations hinting at lives lived and stories passed down through the generations in this steadfast place.
