Introducing Tadoussac

For many visitors to Québec, Tadoussac is the one place in the province they visit outside Montréal and Québec City. What consistently draws the hordes to the small spot, where fewer than 1000 inhabitants gaze across the St Lawrence and at those poor souls leaving on the ferry across the Saguenay, is the whales. Not only do Zodiacs zip out in search of the behemoths, but smaller whales such as belugas and minkes can be glimpsed from the shore. Added to that are activities such as sea kayaking, ‘surfbiking, ’ exploring the fjord by boat or on foot, or simply wandering the dunes and headlands. Some of Tadoussac’s vibrancy departs with the whales, between November and May, but it remains a historic, bohemian town where the locals invariably have time for a chat.
