Indian Point
Above are various replicas of pendants that would have been worn on necklaces by the Beothuk. They may have a religious significance or they may be just for decoration.
At Indian Point you can go for a swim, hike around the beach, have a picnic or just soak in the sun and beautiful scenery.

In 1969, a group of Archeologists under contract by the National Museum of Canada begin excavation at the site. In 1970 funding again was obtained to further more research for a second season on site. Objects recovered at different locations along Red Indian Lake are located at the Rooms in St.Johns Newfoundland
