Airport contact
Paved regional hub for Quebec's Lower North Shore, sitting right at the Quebec-Labrador border; served by Air Liaison and PAL Airlines linking Blanc-Sablon to Sept-Iles, other Lower North Shore communities and Newfoundland/Labrador. Lourdes-de-Blanc-Sablon/Blanc-Sablon is a non-Indigenous Anglo-francophone fishing community with no direct road link to the rest of Quebec's highway network (reachable by car only via the Trans-Labrador Highway through Labrador, Route 389/510); a ferry (St. Barbe-Blanc-Sablon crossing, ~1.5-2 hr) provides the region's road link to the island of Newfoundland.
