New Harbour is a local service district and designated place in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. It is on the east shore of Trinity Bay, along Provincial Route 80. Route 80's intersection with Route 73 is inside New Harbour.

Going as far back as 1800, it was a major ship building centre.

In the past, the railroad served to provide the transportation of paper from the Grand Falls Mill to Heart's Content, for shipping to foreign markets.
