Entry Island (French: Île-d’Entrée) is an island off the east coast of the Magdalen Islands, which are part of the Canadian province of Quebec. The island is 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) wide and 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) long. The island is located 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) from the main port of Cap-aux-Meules of the Magdalen Islands. Entry Island is only accessible by ocean or air. The island is also home to an English-speaking community.
Fishing is the main industry of the island with the lobster fishery being the most important, but some fishermen also harvest crab, scallops, whelk, mackerel, tuna and herring.
Approximately 60 residents reside on Entry Island year around. That is down from 270 in 1980.
Visible as the first island when travelling by ferry from Prince Edward Islands to the Magdalen Islands, Entry Island can be identified by its lavishly tinted cliffs. Beautiful, unspoiled rolling green hills are one of the main attractions of Entry Island. At 174 meters (571 feet) above sea level, Big Hill is the highest elevation on the island, and is also the highest point of land in the archipelago. The island has two stores, a restaurant, an Anglican church, CLSC, museum, and post office; a bed and breakfast operates during the tourist season.
In July 2010, a small military exercise called Exercise "SABRE" took place on the island, lasting 18 days.
The Entry Island School closed permanently in 2015. The remaining 2 school age students reside on the main islands during the school year and are now attending the English speaking school at Grosse-Île. They are to be there until the late 2020s and maybe 2030. There are no school age students that are permanently living on Entry Island due to no school.
