Port-Daniel–Gascons is a municipality in the Gaspésie-Îles-de-la-Madeleine region of the province of Quebec in Canada.
The municipality includes the communities of Marcil, Clemville, Port-Daniel, and Gascons. It was formed on January 17, 2001, through the merger of the Municipality of Port-Daniel and the Parish Municipality of Sainte-Germaine-de-l'Anse-aux-Gascons.
Port Daniel is no longer easily accessible by train due to track closures until local bridges are prepared although the train station is close to the city hall.
