Reefs Harbour is a settlement in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. It is classified as a town. Reefs Harbour is located at 51.0144°N, 57.0125°W.

Reefs Harbour rests along the rugged Atlantic coast, where the salt-heavy air clings to the skin and the horizon holds a permanent, slate-grey promise of weather. It lies 40.9 km north-north-east of Port au Choix, NL (from Port au Choix, NL: bearing 33°T), and is situated 11.3 km south-west of Plum Point. The terrain here is defined by the proximity of the Woody Hill, a sentinel rising above the shoreline that commands a view of the shifting tides and the restless, dark water. At dusk, the light catches the spray of the surf, turning the foam into momentary silver before it vanishes against the jagged rocks. Inland, the landscape stretches toward the Castors River, which flows through the quiet expanse some 12 km away, carving a path through the earth that has persisted long before any human footfall marked the ground. Life in Reefs Harbour persists through the seasonal shifts of the fishery and the steady, unsung labor of those who know the temperament of the northern sea. History here is found in the weathered wood of sheds and the calloused hands of people who understand that the coastline demands a particular kind of vigilance. The economy remains tied to the bounty of the Atlantic, with the daily work dictated by the arrival of the boats and the cold, bracing wind that sweeps off the waves. On quiet days, the silence is so profound that one can hear the land itself settling under the weight of the sky, a stark and lonely beauty that defines the character of Reefs Harbour.
