More than 100 of the Magdalen Islands' 325 lobster boats call at Grande-Entrée each season, making its harbour the archipelago's single most important fishing port in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence. Fire destroyed the wharf in 2024, and reconstruction is being funded through Fisheries and Oceans Canada's Small Craft Harbours Program, though as of May 2026 Canadian media reported no firm budget had yet been set. The natural harbour carries no UN/LOCODE, and its relevance stays confined to local lobster and crab landings. There is no container, bulk or ro-ro handling here; catches travel by road to island processing plants and onward via the port of Cap-aux-Meules to the mainland. Export clearance for seafood runs through Cap-aux-Meules or the ferry link to Souris, Prince Edward Island. Cap-aux-Meules remains the nearest port for any cargo or ro-ro capacity beyond fishing.
