Complete description

Set off on a sea kayak expedition from L'Anse-Saint-Jean, one of Quebec's most picturesque villages (it's actually a member of the Association des Plus Beaux Villages du Québec).Follow the waterways of adventure down the legendary Saguenay Fjord, renowned as one of the world's most awesome. All in an area where two large parks, the Parc du Saguenay and theSaguenay-St. Lawrence Marine Park, join to protect the pristine natural setting.

Day 1: Meeting at L'Anse-Saint-Jean( 8:00am), we make our way by bus to Baie Éternité to take in one of the most magnificient views of the Fjord, overlooking the majestic Capes Liberté, Égalité and Fraternité. A safety training and briefing session takes place before we head out onto the water around 10:30 AM. We spend the night at L'Anse du Portage.

Day 2: We also explore another renowned Saguenay backdrop, the mysterious Saint-Louis and Saint-Barthélémy Islands. Dinner is served on Petite île in a cave that was once home to Native Americans. Our home for the night is the Baie Sainte-Marguerite cottage, a meditative and dreamy spot with beautiful beaches and a delta that offers a unique view of the Fjord.

Day 3: Baie Sainte-Marguerite is the favored spot of the belugas. We will respect their privacy and not attempt to approach them. Before bedding down for the night, we take some time out to admire the sunset from Pointe à Passe-Pierre.

Day 4: What greater magic than the spot where the Fjord meets the river? This is an unforgettable moment, with the two waters intermingling and the lapping waves rocking our kayaks. We relax and have fun in Tadoussac and Baie-Sainte-Catherine, returning to L'Anse-Saint-Jean by boat.

All included : 995 $ + taxes
