Shippagan-Les-Îles is a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick, Canada. It was previously named Shippagan-les-Îles from 1974 to 1995, Lamèque-Shippagan-Miscou from 1995 to 2014 and Shippagan-Lamèque-Miscou from 2014 to 2023. Its boundaries were largely unchanged from its creation until the 2013 redistribution extended it inland to the Pokemouche area, taken from Centre-Péninsule-Saint-Sauveur.

Following the 2023 redistribution, the riding was renamed Shippagan-Les-Îles.
