 Magdalen Islands - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Though closer to Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia, the islands belong to Quebec.
The islands are the location of some of Quebec's oldest English-speaking settlements, and although the majority of anglophones have since been assimilated with the francophone population or migrated elsewhere, there are still English-speaking settlements, many located on Entry Island.
Lighthouses were eventually set up, and this reduced the number of shipwrecks, but there are still many old hulks on the beaches and under the waters.
