Eagle Bay wasn't always called Eagle Bay.
Mercator Way has averaged $4.91 million a house over the last five years, and No. 12 sold for $8 million this July. In 1801 a French expedition under Nicolas Baudin landed right here, and Baudin called it Granite Cove. The French later renamed it Anse Depuch, after their mineralogist, Louis Depuch. Then in 1830 the colony's surveyor, John Septimus Roe, sailed in on a schooner called the Eagle and named the bay after the boat.
Depuch lost the bay. But he did get a cul-de-sac.
