NORTH SHORE ISLAND TRADITIONS

The North Shore island traditions are deeply rooted in a rich history, reflecting the unique blend of languages, crafts, and daily life on the remote islands. With a population of 5,000 residents spread across 14 villages, the culture is a tapestry woven from diverse backgrounds such as Innu, Inuit, Québécois, Acadian, and British influences. The community's livelihood once revolved around fishing, trapping, and hunting, with culinary traditions reflecting the abundance of local wildberries, game, and fish. The traditional craftsmanship, passed down through generations, includes handmade boats, furniture, quilts, and artwork. Visitors can explore this rich cultural heritage through craft shops and demonstration sites along the North Shore island.
