Pointe-aux-Loups is located in the Magdalen Islands tourist region. With only about fifty houses, it is the smallest inhabited island. To the west and east of the island, you will find long beautiful beaches among the most beautiful of the islands. Without doubt the main reason to opt for this destination to rent your cottage.
The beach called «Dune du Nord» connects the island of Cap-aux-Meules to Pointe-aux-Loups Island. If you go to the lagoon, you may see seals. This is the perfect place for kite surfing and sailing. The majestic beach of Pointe-aux-Loups is famous for being the one offering the warmest waters of the islands. With a length of 16.5 km, currents are sometimes strong.
The island of Pointe-aux-Loups is known for its abundance of molluscs (lagoon side). Go fishing for molluscs! An activity that kids love. As soon as a hole appears in the sand left by the low tide, you just have to dig! A scenic 58 km bicycle tour, the Tour de l'Est, runs from Pointe-aux-Loups Island to Grande Entrée Island, passing through Grosse Île. This is a great way to discover Pointe-aux-Loups by breathing the sea air! A short stop at the Heron House is worth a visit. It is a gallery-boutique of art and crafts, as well as an archaeological, palaeontological and conchological exhibition centre.
