About Mingan Archipelago National Park Reserve
The Mingan Archipelago National Park Reserve was established in 1984. There are exceptional geological structures, limestone monoliths that have slowly been eroded by the waves, as well as boreal-type vegetation. The Mingan Archipelago National Park Reserve of Canada is comprised of roughly 1,000 islands and coastal inlets scattered between the mouth of the Saint-Jean River (near Longue-Pointe-de-Mingan) to the west, and the Aguanus River (near Aguanish), to the east. The archipelago has a surface area of about 90 km², while the reserve has an area of 151 km² (58 sq mi). The islands formed as the continent slowly rose after the last glaciation. Over the course of the last few thousand years, the limestone rocks were slowly eroded by the waves, the changing sea level and the winds, as well
