In the North Shore, the air is fresh and comes from afar! Here, the wind blends with the sea air to create an intoxicating scent, typical of our coastal region. If you are an outdoor enthusiast, an activity befitting the tone of the day is sure to blow your way. Regardless of the weather, you will always find an invigorating outdoor activity suitable for the season, surrounded by the immense fawn-coloured boreal forest. Imitate the mountaineer who, driven by an obscure force and raw energy, climbs to the top of the mountain simply because it is there, looming before him. Your turn now, venture towards the faraway horizons and into the virgin lands, let yourself be overcome by the conquering nature of the adventurers.

In summer, discover our natural pallet of pleasures and colours: blue against green, green against blue, blue against blue and all other unimaginable colour combinations! Whale-watching excursions, pleasure cruises, boat trips on the high seas, sea kayaking, underwater diving, cold sea bath, sunbathing, sailing, sport fishing, canoeing, hiking, primitive camping, bird watching, golf, wild berry picking… and many other incredible activities!

Plunge into the heart of our winter wonderland and witness the mountains of fluffy snow, the luminous aurora borealis, a whirlwind of stars and white crystals and the mesmerizing silence of the sleepy woods. Travel across the vast territory of the North Shore by snowmobile, car, boat, airplane, or on cross country skis or snowshoes: all means are possible to reach the North Shore, pure nature with a gentle heart.
