The Straight Shore is a 45-kilometre (28 mi) section of coastline on the island of Newfoundland in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. It follows a generally northwesterly direction from the town of Cape Freels to Musgrave Harbour and then a generally westerly direction along the southern shore of Sir Charles Hamilton Sound to Gander Bay. The entire section known as the Straight Shore is not entirely straight especially the more westerly section from Musgrave Harbour to Gander Bay South. The name may have been derived from the stretch of sandy beaches along the stretch between Cape Freels and Musgrave Harbour. The name stayed and was extended to include the section from Musgrave Harbour to Gander Bay South. Route 330 follows along the geographic area of the Straight Shore.
