Set sail for a once-in-a-lifetime encounter with 13 species of whales and marine mammals, including the minke whales, humpback whales, common dolphins, porpoises, seals, belugas, and the majestic blue whale, the largest animal on the planet.
During this incredible 2-hour expedition, our experienced captains will guide you through the Saguenay-St. Lawrence Marine Park, renowned globally for its exceptional whale-watching experiences.
