St. Julien's is a small fishing community on the eastern shores of the Great Northern Peninsula on the island of Newfoundland in the Canadian Province of Newfoundland and Labrador. The community is accessible via an unpaved road, Route 438, which branches off of Route 432 near the community of Main Brook.

Near the community is an abandoned copper mine which has been recently re-discovered with potential new mining quantities.[1]

During King George's War, the village was attacked in the Newfoundland Campaign (1744).
