Port-au-Grégoire (Emeraudian Creole: Port-aw-Gregourie) is the capital and largest city of Île d'Émeraude. Located where the Rivière Emeraude meets the Crystal Bay, the city is located in a prime position within a natural harbor.
Established in 1551 as a harbor for the slave trade, it is one of the oldest settlements in the Asterias.
