Francois (/frænˈsweɪ/ fran-SWAY) is a local service district and designated place in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador.

It is located on the southern coast of Newfoundland on François Bay at the end of a small fjord.

There is a general store, a post office and a small museum, accessed by concrete pathways and boardwalks.

Most residents pronounce the name "Fran-sway",[1] and its proper spelling is without the cedilla found in the French word françois.
