Whales and
Wonder Trail
Outdoor adventure awaits around every bend of the Saguenay Fjord. So do mighty marine mammals. From Québec City and the surrounding area to Charlevoix and Côte-Nord, you’re in for a whale of a good time along the St. Lawrence.
Voyage
Through Nature
In western Québec, wilderness reigns. You’ll be amazed to see how many lakes (hint: thousands) and forests there are so close to big cities.
Journey
Into Flavour
From Montréal’s must-eats to regional produce that tastes so much sweeter when served from the source, this is Québec at its most festive and authentic, where the memories you’ll make are as delectable as the food itself.
Peninsula
Path
Cliffsides begging to be hiked and paddled, briny bites in coastal villages, and a maritime heritage that glues it all together — the peninsula is your path to the perfect seaside vacation.
