About Dildo, NL

Dildo sits on Trinity Bay along Route 80, about an hour from St. John's via the Trans-Canada Highway, and makes an easy stop for anyone touring the Avalon Peninsula's back roads. Locals often head along Route 80 to Spaniards Bay, Bay Roberts, or Carbonear for shopping and fuel, since EV charging options are limited on this stretch, with fast chargers mainly around Holyrood or St. John's. The town's best-known feature is the giant fibreglass squid on the waterfront, a nod to a real 16-metre specimen caught in the harbor back in 1878.
