Le bateau était ponctuel. Cependant, il n’y a pas eu les 3 heures de bateau annoncées, mais seulement 2 heures d’effectuées. Les annoncent en français et les commentaires étaient très bien. Nous avons juste vu le dos de quelques rorquals et de 2 bélugas mais de très très loin, ce qui est difficilement visible sur les vidéos prises avec nos appareils. Un peu déçu de l’activité.

Highlights

This 3-hour boat tour departs from Tadoussac or Baie-Sainte-Catherine in Charlevoix and heads into the Saguenay–St. Lawrence Marine Park in search of whales. You may encounter up to 13 whale species that visit these waters, including humpback, minke and fin whales. A certified naturalist guide on board shares stories about the whales and the marine park in French and English. From the open-air decks and the panoramic glass-enclosed lounge of a boat designed for marine mammal watching, you can also take in the scenery of the Saguenay Fjord.


Program

Board a whale watching boat
in Tadoussac or Baie-Sainte-Catherine

Depending on the option you choose, you board the boat in Tadoussac or in Baie-Sainte-Catherine in Charlevoix. The same boat picks up passengers at both locations, so the tour is identical. If you are coming from Quebec City or Charlevoix, Baie-Sainte-Catherine is the recommended departure point.

The vessel is designed for watching marine mammals. Enjoy the sea from the open-air decks, or relax in the glass-enclosed lounge with 180-degree panoramic views.

 

Look for whales in the Saguenay–St. Lawrence Marine Park

Head out into the marine park to look for up to 13 whale species, including humpback, minke and fin whales. May to October is the best season for whale watching.

A certified naturalist guide on board explains the whale species and their behavior in French and English. All tours follow marine conservation principles so as not to disturb the whales’ natural behavior.

 

Admire the Saguenay Fjord

Take in the mountain scenery of the Saguenay Fjord. Depending on navigation conditions, there may also be time for photos with views toward Saguenay Fjord National Park.

 

Take a break at the onboard bistro

If you get hungry, snacks, meals and drinks are available for purchase at the onboard bistro. Only credit cards are accepted on board. At the end of the tour, you return to your departure point.

※ Wildlife lives in its natural habitat, so sightings are not guaranteed. If you do not see any whales, the operator will offer you another whale watching boat tour.
※ The cruise operates in the rain unless the weather poses a risk to passenger safety.
