Port of Souris


The Port of Souris is a community-owned harbour in the town of Souris in eastern Prince Edward Island, Canada. It serves commercial fisheries, a year-round ferry to Îles de la Madeleine operated by Coopérative de Transport Maritime et Aérien a marina for recreational boating, and a seasonal Canadian Coast Guard search-and-rescue station.

Location and jurisdiction

The public port of Souris was historically defined in federal regulations as the navigable waters of Colville Bay north of a line between Souris Head and Swanton Point. In 2006, ownership and operation of the facilities were transferred from Transport Canada to the community-run Souris Harbour Authority Inc.
