The beauty of this cove hides a tragic past. Memorial to USS Truxton and USS Pollux erected on the 75th anniversary of this tragic Naval Disaster. This yellow fluorspar vein runs through the shoreline granite, a hint of a 376 million year old geological story.

St. Lawrence

History is alive in St. Lawrence: The 1929 tidal wave swept away their livelihood, so the men of St. Lawrence dug their way to a new future in mining. In 1942 a WW2 convoy of American war ships ran aground in gale-force winds, so local miners and their women launched a heroic rescue – a tale of such humanity that it redefined race relations in the American Navy. Historical adventures with guided walking tours to the epicenter of the tidal wave and to the rescue site at spectacular Chamber Cove.
