Baie-Comeau, Industrial port city in Côte-Nord region, Quebec, Canada.
Baie-Comeau extends along the northern shore of the Saint Lawrence River, near the mouth of the Manicouagan River at 21 meters above sea level.
Colonel Robert McCormick established the city in 1936 by constructing a paper mill, leading to its incorporation as a municipality in 1937.
The municipality carries the name of Napoléon-Alexandre Comeau, a naturalist who contributed extensively to the documentation of Quebec's northern coastal region.
The city maintains connections through its airport, ferry services across the Saint Lawrence River, and Route 138 highway linking to Quebec City.
The municipal territory includes two distinct urban centers, formed when the original Baie-Comeau merged with neighboring Hauterive in 1983.
