Sandringham is a small rural community located along the Northeast Arm of Alexander Bay on the island of Newfoundland. Established as one of eight land settlement communities by the Commission of Government, the town was developed to promote agriculture and rural growth. Built on a low-lying coastal plain once part of a former lakebed, Sandringham presented challenging conditions for early settlers, yet it was completed on time and within budget and became one of the more successful settlement projects.

Today, Sandringham is known for its quiet lifestyle, strong sense of community, and deep agricultural roots. Farming continues to play an important role in the local economy and culture, alongside traditional activities such as forestry and berry picking. Residents take pride in their heritage, resilience, and connection to the land, making Sandringham a welcoming and close-knit place to live and visit.
