At the south end of Route 100, 46 km south of Placentia is St Bride's.

At the end of a road west of Branch is Point Lance, which has a fine beach. Back on Route 100, drive to the junction of the road leading to the Cape St. Mary's Ecological Reserve. It's marked by a sign. The 12.6 km road leads to a view immortalized in the Newfoundland folk song "Let Me Fish off Cape St. Mary's."

The vantage point, a 15-30 minute walk from the interpretation centre, overlooks Bird Rock, the third largest nesting site for gannets (with their two metre wing span in North America, and offers a spectacular opportunity to photograph birds. The high cliffs make the area a good one for spotting whales cavorting in the waters below.
