Whether you want to succumb to the charms of the big city with a dinner show package, seek out whale spouts or admire the unique maritime character of the islands, all reasons are good ones to set sail! When visiting Quebec, it’s almost impossible to resist the urge to discover marine mammals. In order to rub fins with these great creatures, various cruises are offered, whether aboard a comfortable ship or a Zodiac (sure to please the more adventurous). Cruises are available to discover, among other places, the imposing Saguenay Fjord and numerous islands and their legendary lighthouses. Several theme cruises are also offered, when there are fireworks, for example, or as a means to discover Quebec’s terroir with a gastronomic dinner. Entertainment is also on the agenda with rhythmic evenings, often available with departures from large cities like Montréal and Québec. Another way to be rocked by the waves is to drift across one of Quebec’s majestic lakes, like Mégantic or Memphremagog.
