Locations: This film was shot in both British Columbia and Newfoundland. The rugged and wild landscape of the Bonavista Peninsula brings Neverland to life.
Trinity – Fort Point: Fort Point located a 15 minute drive away from Artisan Inn is part of the municipality of Trinity and is where a British fortification stood until it was destroyed during a 15-day period when the French occupied Trinity in 1762. The second installation of a fort was in 1812 to serve as protection against the raids of American privateers. After the fort was abandoned, a lighthouse was installed in 1871. The opening scene of the recently released Peter Pan & Wendy trailer shows Wendy on a beach in Neverland. This scene was filmed at the base of Fort Point showing the beach as well as the rock formation referred to by locals as the Naked Man.
Other Locations: The movie will be released later in Spring 2023, while we don’t know what scenes made the final cut we do catch a brief glimpse in the preview of Wendy meeting the Lost Boys for the first time. This shoot location was at Spillars Cove / Cable John Cove. While not in the preview we know that scenes were also shot at Tickle Cove and the Dungeon. Spillars Cove/Cable John Cove, Tickle Cove and the Dungeon are all notable locations of the UNESCO Discovery Global Geopark.

Synopsis: A four-part miniseries that follows the lives and struggles of both Irish and English families that crossed the Atlantic to start a new life in Newfoundland.
Location: New Bonaventure
Random Passage was set in the early 1800s. The set for the community where the characters reside had to be built from scratch. The location, just past the town of New Bonaventure, was selected because telephone and electrical wires could not be seen. When filming was finished the town requested that the film set be left intact so that people could visit. Even if you have not seen the series (8 hours long) or read the books, the site is well worth a visit.

New Bonaventure: Joe’s bar was built specifically for the film with the agreement that it would be disassembled once filming was done, however, the town of New Bonaventure asked to have the set left as it was, so that visitors to the area could visit the set on a tour. It does not function as an actual bar, but is used for special events such as kitchen parties from time to time. Visitors can tour the building as part of an individual pass or joint pass with the Random Passage set tour.

Tickle Cove: There is a scene in the movie when Gordon Pinsent emerges from the water in scuba gear after playing a trick on the doctor. This is filmed in front of the Tickle Cove sea arch.

Red Cliff: Red Cliff is where the Cricket Match was filmed. It is possible to wander from the town of Red Cliff to this area, however, the trail is unmarked and not part of the Hike Discovery network, so visitors may do so at their own risk.

The house was located on an off-road from the Fort Point Lighthouse. There is a new hike you can do around the general area called the South Side Hills Hike.
Fun fact: Julianne Moore stayed at the Artisan Inn in the Barbour House during the 6 weeks of filming.
