Apresentação geral
Minganie and Havre-Saint-Pierre
Spectacular rocky coast giving access to the limestone monoliths of the Mingan archipelago and the Gulf islands.
Mingan Archipelago National Park Reserve, Niapiskau Island and Quarry Island provide the most telling landmarks of Minganie and Havre-Saint-Pierre. Together, they form a destination where the coastline, island landscapes and natural spaces meet, with atmospheres that change over the stages rather than a single uniform decor.
Ver tudo
For a stay of 4 to 8 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Nature and panorama
Mingan Archipelago National Park Reserve
The Mingan Archipelago National Park Reserve is famous for its sea-carved limestone monoliths, which are located on low islands in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Boat trips, seabirds, fossils and northern flora make up a very unique visit, depending on the weather and tides.
Place indismissible
Niapiskau Island
Niapiskau Island concentrates some of the most photogenic landscapes of the Mingan archipelago, with its limestone rocks with strange shapes laid near the sea. Short trails allow to approach these natural sculptures, between clear vegetation, sprays and views to other islands.
Place indismissible
Quarry Island
Quarry Island offers a complete overview of Mingan, with rocky shores, undergrowth, peatlands and monoliths accessible by trail. Its gentle relief makes it pleasant for a guided or autonomous exit, especially to observe closely the diversity of environments on a small island.
Place indismissible
Havre-Saint-Pierre
Havre-Saint-Pierre serves as an entrance door to the Mingan archipelago, facing the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the island of Anticosti offshore. The village keeps an atmosphere of maritime road end, with docks, low houses, excursions at sea and very open light on the horizon.
