At 107 metres and around 110 tonnes, the wind-turbine blades built beside Gaspe (CA GPE) are the largest ever loaded onto a ship in North America, and they define the port's role on Quebec's Gaspé Peninsula in the Gulf of St Lawrence. The LM Wind Power (GE) plant feeds this project and heavy-lift traffic across two berths kept open year-round, handled by operator QSL alongside breakbulk and bulk for regional industry and construction. Gaspe is not a container or liner port: its value lies in oversized and project cargo rather than boxed freight. Quay depths of roughly 9–10 m allow safe handling of long, awkward components, with hinterland distribution running mainly by road. For containerised or international shipments, Québec City and Montréal are the nearest commercial alternatives. Customs clearance follows Canadian procedures for project-related imports and exports.
