It now winds its way northeast along the coastline to pass through Bay L'Argent, where one can access a Ferry to Rencontre East,^[1] and then Little Bay East. The highway now becomes very curvy and winding as it heads through hilly terrain for the next several kilometres to pass through Little Harbour East.
