Battle Harbour is a summer fishing station, formerly a permanent settlement, located on the Labrador coast.

Mercantile salt-fish premises first established there in the 1770s developed into a thriving community that was known as the Capital of Labrador.

Tourist attractions include renovated houses and an early 19th century wharf and mercantile building reconstruction.
