Great weather from start to finish! (Original) Nous avons expérimenté les nouvelles oasis! Un pur plaisir! Belle architecture. Nous avons complément décroché!

Marie-Eve Piche

(Translated) Beautiful Islands. Beautiful ! We visited Niapiscau Island and Quarry (monoliths) with the services of Maritime Boréale. Parks Canada guides are very nice and know their Islands well. Really a must! (Original) Magnifiques Îles. De toute beauté ! Nous avons visité l'île Niapiscau et Quarry (monolithes) avec les services de Maritime Boréale. Les guides de Parcs Canada sont très gentils et connaissent bien leurs Îles. Vraiment un must !

Jarold Dumouchel

(Translated) Very cool. We went there for a day, but I admit that camping on the island should allow you to better appreciate the place without the flurry of tourists ... :) (Original) Très cool. Nous y sommes allés une journée, mais j’avoue que de camper sur l’île doit permettre de mieux apprécier les lieux sans la floppée de touristes… :)

Tysun Powless

Staff for the fairy was extremely rude and currently because I have red hair and said I had no soul.

France Lessard

(Translated) Visit today of the Quarry and Caniapiscau islands. Despite the pandemic period, I am delighted by the 4km hike on the shores of Quarry Island and the shorter but impressive visit to Caniapiscau. If the guided tours do not work, the guides on site answer our questions and share their knowledge in a generous and very interesting way. I learned a lot and I appreciate all the kilometers taken to visit this magnificent part of the country. (Original) Visite aujourd'hui des îles Quarry et Caniapiscau. Malgré la période de pandémie, je suis enchantée par la randonnée de 4km faite sur les rives de l'île Quarry et la visite plus courte mais impressionnante de Caniapiscau. Si les visites guidées ne fonctionnent pas, les guides sur place répondent à nos questions et partagent leurs connaissances de façon généreuse et fort intéressante. J'ai beaucoup appris et j'apprécie d'autant les km faits pour visiter ce magnifique coin de pays.

Raphael Lanouette

Park is super clean and the trails are well made. Park info center employees are sometimes a little too clueless about the tours but the guides on-site seem more than adequate.

MARTINE PHENIX

(Translated) fantastic place. Departures from Havre St Pierre in a small boat to go see the penguins and puffins. it is possible to make several islands in one expedition, I highly recommend. Few people know that there are puffins and penguins in Quebec. (Original) endroit fantastique. départs de havre st pierre en petit bateau pour aller voir les pingouins et les macareux. il est possible de faire plusieurs iles en une expédition, je recommande fortement. Peu de gens savent qu'il y a des macareux et des pingouins au quebec.

Mathieu A

(Translated) Very beautiful national park. Only downside, access to the various islands is expensive and complex. (Original) Très beau parc national. Seul bémol, l'accès aux différentes îles est dispendieux et complexe.

Corbeau Proteur d’âme

Emile Ollivier

Amazing island to camp on!!

Gee Morin

Awsome landscapes

Bill Cheung

Lots of sea birds and monoliths.

Ramon Cuevas Regozo

Beautiful islands with unique rock formations that would rival the UNESCO World Heritage sites in Cappadoccia, Turkey. We took boat tours that brought us to Ile Nue, Ile Quarry, Ile Niapiskau, and Ile Peroquets (which has no rock formations but has a lighthouse and is also a bird sanctuary). All are spectacular. Boat tours are a must-do. We also stayed two nights at an Oasis (a Parks Canada mini-cottage with solar lighting, propane heating, and BBQ but no electrical or water system). We got to the island through a boat taxi. This is a superb option for non-campers like us but its main drawback is that reaching the camp from the boat drop-off is a long and very rough walk to carry your bags. But the views around the island are all incredible. Highly recommended.

Megan

(Translated) We fell in love with the place. We went to the Ile du Havre, which we circled (17km over about 4h30-5h). The geology of the place is impressive. Landscapes change from one corner of the Island to the other. The monoliths are beautiful formations, and what about the cliffs. The water is clear and a blue that makes us imagine we are in another country. The hike is relatively easy, as long as you take the tide time into account, as some portions can be more difficult to navigate during high tide. Also, we hardly passed anyone on our hike, it is rare that we have the chance to visit such a beautiful place without too many visitors. It was just sublime, I will definitely be going back to visit the other surrounding islands, and possibly camping there. (Original) Gros coup de coeur pour l’endroit. Nous sommes allés sur l’Île du Havre, dont nous avons fait le tour (17km sur environ 4h30-5h). La géologie de l’endroit est impressionnante. Les paysages changent d’un coin à l’autre de l’Île. Les monolithes sont des formations de toute beauté, et que dire des falaises. L’eau est claire et d’un bleu qui nous fait nous imaginer être dans un autre pays. La randonnée se fait relativement facilement, à condition de prendre en compte l’heure des marées, car certaines portions peuvent être plus ardus à parcourir en marée haute. Par ailleurs, nous n’avons croisé presque personne pendant notre randonnée, c’est rare qu’on a la chance de visiter un si bel endroit sans qu’il n’y ait trop de visiteurs. C’était tout simplement sublime, je retournerai assurément visiter les autres îles aux alentours, et possiblement y faire du camping.

Yoland Cloutier

Wow !

Paul Labbé

Take the organized tours you will get better access and guided activities.

Josée Falardeau

(Translated) Beautiful area. Hope to go back. (Original) Très bel endroit. Espère bien y retourner.

Gaetan Lavoie

(Translated) Grandiose landscapes, truly enchanting (Original) Paysages grandioses, vraiment enchanteur

Sylvie St-Pierre

(Translated) Wow, wow, wow. Nothing to say because the visit of the three islands are worth it (Ghosts, Niapiskay and Quarry), 6hrs cruise with SM Boréale. They are spectacular all three, only downside, the visit of the first islands could have been 1h rather than 30 min. (Original) Wow, wow, wow. Rien à redire car la visite des trois îles en valent la peine(Fantômes, Niapiskay et Quarry), Croisiere de 6hrs avec SM Boréale. Elle sont spectaculaire toutes les trois,seul bémol , la visite de la première îles aurait pu être de 1h plutôt que 30 min.

David Thibault

(Translated) Magnificent park allowing the development of this unique site as much by its geology as by its flora. To visit if you are in the region (Original) Magnifique parc permettant la mise en valeur de ce site unique tant par sa géologie que par sa flore. À visiter si vous passez dans la région

Martha Cox

Amazing location. It's been on my life list and I almost did not see any due to weather. Perroquets and Ile Nue were cancelled due to torrential rain. I could not reschedule the next day due to high wind. Finally in my last day in the area, the weather broke and I got to see Quarry and Niapiskau. So beautiful. I would loved to have stayed longer, but I took what I could get. The Parks Canada guidea were very informative. Dress warm and in layers. It's very cold and wet on the boats and then you heat up walking around the islands.

Yarek Gagnon

(Translated) A beautiful island with a pretty monolith. I would have liked to go around are all to see (Original) Une magnifique île avec de joli monolithe. J'aurais aimer faire le tour êtes tout voir

Mike T.

(Translated) We did some rustic camping on Quarry Island. Magnificent island, sublime landscapes, several monoliths and facilities for top camping! Wood provided as an extra. You will be won over by the two landscaped trails or by going around the island at the base, for the adventurous. (Original) Nous avons fait du camping rustique sur l’île Quarry. Magnifique île, paysages sublimes, plusieurs monolithes et aménagement pour camper top! Bois fournis en extra.

Jean-Bernard Sonier

(Translated) You have to book a cruise to go to the islands. We took the 6h one which allows us to see 3 islands, ghosts, Quarry and niapiskau from Haven St-Pierre (MS Boréale). It is the best. This is islands really worth it. (Original) Il faut réserver une croisière pour aller dans les îles. Nous avons pris celle de 6h qui permet de voir 3 îles, fantômes, Quarry et niapiskau à partir de havre St-Pierre (MS Boréale). C'est la meilleure. C'est îles valle vraiment la peine.

(Translated) A fabulous archipelago with beautiful natural weathering forms on the islands. A very wide variety of landscapes and representatives of the animal world. Dead ends make a lasting impression. We observed several exits of whales in front of the boat and the coast of the islands. (Original) Сказочный архипелаг с прекрасными природными формами выветривания на островах. Очень большое разнообразие ландшафтов и представителей животного мира. Тупики производят неизгладимое впечатление. Наблюдали несколько выходов китов перед катером и побережьем островов.

Promenade en bateau pour découvrir quelques îles composé de roche calcaire qui ce sont érodés donnant des forme particulière. Soyer à l'affût des baleines.

Jean-Francois Lepine

(Translated) Monoliths are essentials of these islands. They are sometimes giant, sometimes very special shapes, often by the sea, but also in the land. But the rock formations are only one facet of the beauty of these islands. In fact, each island stands out from the others and what we see there is unique to each: Niapiscau: Giant monoliths and reefs Quarry: monoliths, cliffs, caves and peat bogs Nude: monoliths, archaeological remains and immense plains Parrot: Abundance of sea birds and a beautiful lighthouse In addition, cruises are an integral part of the experience and allow you to get closer to some where you can not disembark, because bird sanctuaries (eg Wreck). (Original) Les monolithes sont des incontournables de ces îles. Ils sont parfois géants, parfois de formes vraiment spéciales, souvent en bord de mer, mais aussi dans les terres. Mais les formations rocheuses ne sont qu'une facette de la beauté de ces îles. En fait, chaque île se démarque des autres et ce qu'on y voit est propre à chacune: Niapiscau: Monolithes géants et récifs Quarry: monolithes, falaises, grottes et tourbières Nue: monolithes, vestiges archéologiques et immenses plaines Perroquet: Abondance d'oiseaux marins et un très beau phare De plus, les croisières font partie intégrante de l'expérience et permettent de se rapprocher de certaines où on ne peut débarquer, car refuges d'oiseaux (ex: Wreck).

Émilie Hébert

(Translated) I had dreamed of going there for a long time, however for me the experience was disappointing. The temperature was not in our favor. You have to take boats to get there. So we paid $ 200 for a package that brought us to Quarry Island for about 3h30 free for walking, then we were transferred to Niapishu Island for another 3h30. The transport company did not offer the possibility of canceling even though it was not looking good and was announcing not good for the day. We weren't getting to the first island as I was already soaking wet. It was so foggy that we couldn't see anything from the boat. So we couldn't see the monoliths well and walking around soaking was not pleasant. If I could have canceled due to the weather I would have done so because it ruined the highlight of my trip. THEREFORE CHECK THE TEMPERATURE BEFORE BOOKING AND IF POSSIBLE, NOT TOO IN ADVANCE. I got caught and it ruined the day. Otherwise I'm sure it's a great experience in favorable conditions (Original) Je rêvais d'y aller depuis longtemps, cependant pour moi l'expérience a été décevante. La température n'étais pas en notte faveur. Tu dois prendre des bateaux pour t'y rendre. Nous avons donc payer 200$ pour un forfait qui nous apportait sur l'île Quarry pour environ 3h30 libre pour de la marche, ensuite on nous transférait sur l'île Niapishu pour 3h30 encore. La compagnie de transport n'offrait pas la possibilité de cancellé alors qu'il ne fesaiy pas beau et annonçait pas beau pour la journée. Nous n'étions pas arriver sur la première île que j'étais déjà trempe à lavette. C'était tellement brumeux qu'on ne voyait rien en bateau. Alors nous navons pas pu bien voir les monolithes et marcher a se point tremper n'était pas agréable. Si javais pu annuler a cause de la température je l'aurai fait car ca a gâcher le point culminant de mon voyage. DONC VÉRIFIER LA TEMPÉRATURE AVANT DE RÉSERVER ET SI POSSIBLE PAS TROP D'AVANCE. Je me suis fait prendre et ça a gâcher la journée. Sinon je suis sûre que c'est une belle expérience lors de conditions favorables
