Réserve faunique de l'Île-Laval
Located on public land, this reserve is located on an island covering 31.5 hectares, with a highest point at 75 m above sea level. This island in Laval Bay is relatively sheltered from waves and wind, allowing birds to proliferate. This park is one of the few places on the North Shore with such a great diversity of waterfowl. This reserve has a heronry, the largest colony of kittiwakes, the largest cormorandium and the largest colony of herring gulls in this region. This reserve is also the habitat of the common eider, the third most important nesting site for this species; as well as a variety of other breeding bird species. Occasionally, paddlers may spot puffins and kakawis. In order to preserve this wildlife habitat, access to the island is prohibited. Light boats (eg canoe, kayak) are good ways to tour the island and discover this park by paddling; the only place of launching is at the port of Forestville.
