Longue Pointe is about 25 kilometres (16 mi) north-west from Chisasibi on James Bay, and located on the border of Quebec and Nunavut Territory. It is accessible by a 48 kilometres (30 mi) gravel road from Hydro-Québec's La Grande-1 generating station, on the Grand River. The area overlooks James Bay (about 85 kilometres (53 mi) south from where it joins Hudson Bay). Early European fur traders frequented these parts, around the start of the Hudson's Bay Company.
