Map of Miscou Island
It is separated from neighbouring Lamèque Island to the southwest by the Miscou Channel with both islands forming Miscou Harbour. The current population is approximately 190 persons.
The Miscou Channel is bridged between the community of Little Shippegan on Lamèque Island to the community of Miscou Harbour on Miscou Island by the 2000 metre Miscou Island Bridge which opened in 1996, replacing a cable ferry.
Lamèque Island and Miscou Island separate Chaleur Bay from the Gulf of Saint Lawrence.
