Climb aboard our Zodiacs with our experienced captains for an exhilarating and sporty experience in the heart of the world's best whale-watching site. This expedition in the Saguenay St. Lawrence Marine Park is a unique opportunity that you must experience at least once in your lifetime! First, you will set out to encounter the giants of the sea, with the most frequently observed species including minke whales, fin whales, humpback whales, porpoises, harbor seals, and belugas. You will then conclude your excursion with a venture into the majestic Saguenay Fjord. What to Expect: The Site: Depart from the magnificent Charlevoix region or Tadoussac, the most beautiful village in Quebec, also internationally recognized as the best place in the world to observe whales. Duration: This whale-watching expedition in a Zodiac lasts approximately 2.5 hours. Professional Captains and Guides: An experienced captain will guide you through this expedition aboard our 24-passenger Zodiacs. Additionally, a certified naturalist guide joins our 60-passenger Zodiacs to comment on the observations and answer your questions. Panoramic View: Enjoy our 24 or 60-passenger Zodiacs, specially designed for marine mammal observation. Sporty and agile, they offer the perfect balance between comfort and adventure. Memorable Souvenirs: You will have the chance to take photos close to the water and create unforgettable memories with the most majestic creatures on the planet. Onboard Amenities: Take advantage of our complimentary waterproof and windproof suit provided during your cruise to ensure your comfort. Appropriate clothing and closed shoes are highly recommended. Whale Guarantee: Our observation rate is exceedingly high. Since the marine park is a natural environment, sometimes the mammals can be more discreet. No worries, if no sightings are made, you will be invited back on board for another boat cruise at no charge. Tips and Tricks: If you are driving from Montreal or Quebec City for just one day, prioritize departure from Baie-Ste-Catherine to save time due to the ferry to Tadoussac.
