Saint Pierre and Miquelon is an overseas collectivity of France situated near the Canadian provinces of Newfoundland and Labrador. The archipelago consists of eight islands and used to belong to the territory of New France, existing from 1534 to 1763. There were three settlements on the islands of Saint Pierre, Miquelon-Langlade, and Isle-aux-Marins; the latter existed until 1945 when it was united with the municipality of Saint Pierre. Today, with the increase in tourism popularity, the islands maintain the image of "France in North America". Meanwhile, Saint Pierre and Miquelon's dwellers established more and more tourist attractions. Currently, there are six hotels, not including B&Bs and AirBnBs, and 13 eateries on Saint Pierre, with one located on Ile aux Marins. Modern island culture fascinates with its mixed character, with Basque and French traditions intertwined. However, the main attraction for tourists coming to Saint Pierre and Miquelon is the numerous hiking trails.
