Discover St. Pierre and Miquelon
St. Pierre and Miquelon is a self-governing territorial overseas collectivity of France, located in the North Atlantic Ocean, south of Newfoundland and Labrador. The French settled in the islands in the early 17th century and today serves as the sole remnant of New France’s former colonial empire that remains under French control. The islands are situated at the entrance of Fortune Bay, which extends into the southern coast of Newfoundland, near the Grand Banks. According to the January 2011 census, the islands have a population of 6,080.
Saint-Pierre, the smaller of the two, is the only significantly populated town and is the centre of activity. Miquelon is home to an abundance of wildlife, as well as small farming operations and summer homes.
What to see & do
During the summer, St. Pierre and Miquelon holds the annual Basque Festival, which features demonstrations of harrijasotzaile (stone heaving), aizkolari (lumberjack skills), and pelota. You can watch locals play pelota games at Fronton. Local cuisine is primarily based on seafood and is available at some of the best prices in North America. The quaint abandoned village of Île aux Marins is located on an island out in the harbour. It has a small schoolhouse museum, a 19th century-built church, and colourful homes. There are boat tours available which you can take by yourself. To learn more about the islands’ history, visit L'Arche Museum. It features exhibits about the Prohibition times; the guillotine which was used once in history, on a murderer in 1889; and bilingual architectural walking tours. Les Salines is old-timers’ favourite, especially because of its scenic cluster of multihued fishing shacks.
How to get around within St. Pierre and Miquelon
Because of its compact size, it’s generally easy to navigate around the islands on foot. You can also get around on a rented scooter, just be extra careful of the sloping streets in town. Guided tours around Saint-Pierre are offered by a couple of taxi services. You can also access the nearby islands of Île aux Marins, Langlade, and Miquelon via ferry. Just note that Île aux Marins and Langlade are only inhabited during summer and that Miquelon has fewer amenities.
How to get there
The islands are not part of the European Union or Schengen Zone, so expect the immigration procedures to be different from those of France.
