Cuper's Cove, on the southwest shore of Conception Bay on Newfoundland's Avalon Peninsula was an early English settlement in the New World, and the third one after Harbour Grace, Newfoundland (1583) and Jamestown, Virginia (1607) to endure for longer than a year. It was established in 1610 by John Guy on behalf of Bristol's Society of Merchant Venturers, who had been given a charter by King James I of England to establish a colony on the island of Newfoundland. Most of the settlers left in the 1620s, but apparently a few stayed on and the site was continuously inhabited.

  • Cuper's Cove, sur la côte sud-ouest de la baie de la Conception, sur la péninsule d'Avalon de l'île de Terre-Neuve, était un ancien établissement anglais du Nouveau monde, et le second après la colonie de Jamestown à durer plus d'un an. Il fut établi en 1610 par John Guy pour la Society of Merchant Venturers de Bristol, qui reçut une charte de Jacques Ier d'Angleterre pour établir une colonie sur l'île de Terre-Neuve. La communauté est actuellement connue sous le nom de Cupids. (fr)
