OVERVIEW

Experience an exciting and informative whale-watching excursion! Perched atop steep cliffs, Forillon National Park is breathtakingly beautiful. As the bus winds slowly along the more than 62 miles (100 kms) of rugged cliffs and past sweeping bays, travelers can admire the most extraordinary panoramas in Eastern Canada. The Bay of Gaspe, the cliffs of Forillon National Park, offer an unending feast for the eyes. The waters of the Bay of Gaspe and the Gulf of the St. Lawrence are home to eight different whale species. Aboard a solid bottom zodiac, accompanied by a guide, guests may observe these giant mammals and learn about the environment in which they live. Depending on the season and the food available, the following species may be observed in the Gaspe-Perce area: blue whales (the largest mammals in the world), spectacular humpback whales, as well as fin whales, minke whales, white-sided dolphins, harbor porpoises and seals.
