It lies 4.5 km north-north-east of Salaberry-de-Valleyfield, QC (from Salaberry-de-Valleyfield, QC: bearing 18°T), and is situated 4.7 km east of Coteau-du-Lac.

The air here carries the distinct, clean scent of fresh water, mingled with the earthy aroma of cultivated soil, a constant reminder of the agricultural heart that beats beneath the surface of this landscape. On a clear day, the broad expanse of the St. Lawrence dominates the view, its surface a shifting canvas of blues and greys, reflecting the vast, often dramatic, Quebec sky. The history of Pointe-Meloche is deeply entwined with the mighty St. Lawrence and the ingenuity that sought to harness its power. For generations, this region has been a vital artery for trade and transport, a legacy cemented by the construction of the Beauharnois Canal, a monumental undertaking that reshaped the local economy and the very contours of the land. While agriculture remains a steady presence, the whisper of industry, particularly related to hydroelectric power and its historical impact, can still be felt in the character of Pointe-Meloche. The rhythm of life here is one of quiet industry, a steady pulse that has seen families cultivate the land, work the waterways, and build a resilient community over the years, each generation leaving its own subtle imprint on the enduring spirit of Pointe-Meloche.
À Pointe-Meloche, le paysage s'étire doucement vers le grand fleuve, un ruban d'eau qui a façonné l'âme de cette terre depuis toujours. L'air y est empreint de cette douceur particulière des rives, où la lumière du soir, lorsqu'elle caresse les champs labourés, semble fondre lentement le bleu du ciel et le vert des prairies. L'histoire se murmure dans le vent, celle des premiers colons qui ont cherché ici un foyer, et des peuples autochtones dont les traces se perdent dans le temps, mais dont le respect de la nature perdure. L'économie, autrefois ancrée dans la terre et l'eau, conserve une fierté discrète, une résilience qui se lit dans le rythme tranquille des journées. Les rives, tantôt douces, tantôt découpées, invitent à la contemplation, rappelant la force tranquille du Saint-Laurent qui enlace Pointe-Meloche, un lieu où le temps semble s'écouler au diapason des marées et des saisons.
