Port Royal is an abandoned settlement in Newfoundland and Labrador.[1]

The town was sustained by fisheries, and, at its height, had a population of 80-100 people. In the early 1960s, the population was resettled. A reunion was held in 1993, and the town is inhabited during the summer.[1] It is located on Long Island, Placentia Bay, close to Harbour Buffett.[1]
