Five Islands
Five Islands is named, logically, after five small islands - Moose, Diamond, Long, Egg, and Pinnacle - located just off the coast. Native Mi'kmaq legend has it that the Five Islands were created when their god Glooscap threw the mud, sticks and stones at the giant beaver who dammed his medicine garden in Advocate. The mud, sticks and stones that formed the islands are said to have trapped the beaver in one of the islands and turned it into gold.
