The Big Hill + My Favorites
The highest point of the islands, at 174 metres the Big Hill offers views over the entire archipelago. Located on L'Île de Grande-Entrée, which has residents of mostly English and Irish descent, the hill is reachable vis the Ivan Quinn pathway.
Mines Seleine (Salt Mines) + My Favorites
Below Rocher du Dauphin's surface, on Grosse-Īle, lies large salt deposits that are excavated to be exported throughout eastern Canada and the United States. The mine is a whopping 300 m (984 ft) deep and is 1.6 km (1 mi) in diametre. More than a million tones of salt are produced annually, which is mostly used to de-ice slippery winter roads.
Artisans du Sable + My Favorites
For more than 20 years talented artists have been using the islands' most plentiful resource to create original, long-lasting and beautiful sculptures. Sand is hardened using a secret process to create an attractive and durable material from which lamps, vases, hourglasses, murals and much more are formed. The products of Artisans du Sable have been well-renowned world-wide. Address: 907 Route 199 | Havre-Aubert, QC | G4T 9C8 [ Map ] Tel: 1 418 937-2917
