L'Île-Dorval is a municipality in southwestern Quebec, Canada, in Lac Saint-Louis off of the Island of Montreal.

A cottaging spot, it had only two permanent residents as of the 1996 census, making it the smallest municipality in Canada both in area and population. By the 2001 census the official population had dropped to zero, due most probably to random rounding by Statistics Canada, since there were obviously enough people there to hold an election in 2004. It is connected to the Island of Montreal with a seasonal ferry service.

On January 1, 2002, it merged with the city of Montreal. In 2004, it voted to return to being an independent municipality, effective January 1, 2006.
