Cape Bauld

Cape Bauld is a headland located at the northeasternmost point of the island of Newfoundland in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador.

Cape Bauld is located slightly south and east of Cape Norman, forming the northeastern tip of the Great Northern Peninsula and delineates the eastern end of the Strait of Belle Isle.

Cape Bauld is located on the north side of Quirpon Island. A lighthouse was constructed at the cape in 1884.
