Rivière-Pentecôte, Administrative sector in Port-Cartier, Canada.
The Pentecôte River flows through this northern sector of Port-Cartier, creating multiple waterways before reaching the Saint Lawrence Gulf.
The name Rivière-Pentecôte originates from Jacques Cartier's arrival in the area during the Christian Pentecost celebration in 1535.
Saint-Patrice Church, constructed in 1887, stands at the top of a hill and remains an active center for religious ceremonies.
The area features several launch points for water activities, with year-round facilities including bathrooms and parking spaces near the river.
The local power plant, built on the Riverin River in 1999, generates 2.01 MW of electricity through its concrete dam structure.
