Pointe-Claire, Suburban municipality on the Island of Montreal, Canada

Pointe-Claire is a municipality on the Island of Montreal situated along Lake Saint-Louis. The territory combines residential neighborhoods, industrial areas, and shopping zones within a diversified urban layout.

The settlement originated in 1698 under Sulpician direction, a French Catholic community. Early European exploration of the area was documented in the late 1600s.

The city maintains multiple educational facilities, including both English and French schools, reflecting the bilingual nature of the Montreal metropolitan area.

The municipality connects to downtown Montreal via Autoroute 20, Autoroute 40, and the Vaudreuil-Hudson rail line for convenient travel. Different neighborhoods and shopping areas are accessible on foot or by car depending on your starting point.

Terra-Cotta Natural Park sits on former clay extraction grounds with six kilometers of walking paths through reclaimed land. The site preserves traces of industrial activity while offering green space for recreation.
