The North Shore… nature in all its grandeur
The North Shore, bordered by the St. Lawrence River, extends from the Fjord of the Saguenay River to the borders of Newfoundland and Labrador. This region evokes the admiration of all with its grandeur, remarkable biodiversity and breathtaking panoramic views of the sea as well as the forests. In either case, the enormity of the territory defies the horizon and the imagination! The boreal forest, strewn with lakes and drained by mighty rivers, makes up three-quarters of this territory!

The numerous observation sites, on water and on land, and the numerous species present in the waters, make this region one of the five best places in the world to observe and follow marine mammals.
