Coin #4: The Mingan Archipelago National Park Reserve (MANPR):
The tour concludes in Quebec’s Côte-Nord region, where more than a thousand limestone islets and islands lie just off the northern shores of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, opposite Anticosti Island is located on Nitassinan, traditional lands of the Innu people inhabited by the Ekuanitshit and Nutashkuan First Nations for thousands of years.
Stretching along the coast of the Gulf of the St. Lawrence between the villages of Longue-Pointe-de-Mingan and Aguanish, Que., the Mingan Archipelago National Park Reserve was created in 1984 with the aim of protecting a natural area that is representative of the Eastern St. Lawrence Lowlands. The park reserve is famous for its seabird population: an estimated 200 bird species congregate here, and more than 80,000 seabirds feed and nest in colonies on the islands.
The archipelago is best known as the home of Canada’s largest concentration of erosion monoliths—rock pillars that continue to be shaped by water, wind and time.
Its islands are accessible by boat; once ashore, visitors are invited to let the ocean set the rhythm as they take in the scenery and discover the rich biodiversity of this coastal chain preserved since 1984, part of a vast network of spaces protected for present and future generations of Canadians.
While the park reserve’s limestone bedrock is over 450 million years old, its famous monoliths were shaped by variations in the sea level associated with glacial retreat 10,000 years ago, and continuously carved by the eroding forces of wind and waves, freezing and thawing.
The Gulf of St. Lawrence is the final stop.
Kwiyaajàl’/We are happy to welcome you:
