The isle in the Baie St-Paul

We have been here before, the last time in 2005, and we're going again.

Either your visit is by bicycle, by car or by feet; you will be charmed by the overwhelming scenery of L’Isle-aux-Coudres [...] It is Jacques Cartier that discovered the Island in 1535. He gave it the name of “Coudres” due to the abundance of hazelnut-type trees name “Coudriers”. [...] The popular belief wants that the very first family who had established themselves on the Island were Joseph Savard, his wife Marie-Josephine Morelle and their children. Nowadays there are approximately 1313 residents on the Island. [...] Renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, its legendary serenity, and the famous people conviviality the Island has definitely taken a tourist vocation [...] everyone will be satisfied. No matter how long your journey is, a wide scope of activities is offered to you. Bicycle, beach walking, pedestrian trails, stars and bird’s contemplation, painting, tennis courts, bowling, wild berries gathering [...] you will unquestionably enjoy your voyage!
