Minganie—Le Golfe-du-Saint-Laurent County rewards residents with big-sky horizons, salt air, and communities that trace the shoreline from Havre-Saint-Pierre to Natashquan and Blanc-Sablon. Nature is part of daily life here: paddle among limestone monoliths and puffin colonies in the Mingan Archipelago National Park Reserve, cared for by Parks Canada, explore fossil-rich shores and wild rivers on Parc national d’Anticosti with Sépaq, or watch whales and seabirds sweep across the Gulf at sunrise. Trails, salmon rivers, and windswept beaches turn every season—long, luminous winters included—into an outdoor invitation.
Families find close-knit schools through the Centre de services scolaire du Littoral, which supports small classes and distance education across the Lower North Shore. Essential goods and travel link the villages via the Relais Nordik coastal service, while air links and services in Sept-Îles extend healthcare and shopping options. The culture reflects French, English, and Innu roots, celebrated in local festivals, craft traditions, and cuisine built on seafood and boreal ingredients.
