Occupied for thousands of years by first nations, the island was also used by the Grey Nuns for over 200 years. Several historic buildings, a cemetery, and an organic orchard bear witness to their presence on this territory and are accessible to the public.
The Fernand-Seguins Ecological Center, located a few kilometers from the island, offers a 5 kilometer trail in its protected forest, which is home to several distinctive tree species! Wildlife observation is also a popular activity.
