The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
Sail past the iconic Percé Rock — one of the world's largest natural arches — then land on Bonaventure Island to walk among 116,000 nesting Northern Gannets in one of North America's most spectacular seabird colonies. Utterly unforgettable.
Ride a gondola to the clifftop Géopark de Percé and step onto the glass-floored Skywalk suspended 200 m above the St. Lawrence, with Percé Rock, Bonaventure Island, and the entire bay spread below you. A jaw-dropping perspective found nowhere else on Earth.
Explore the dramatic limestone headlands of Forillon — where the Appalachians plunge into the sea — then board a zodiac whale-watching cruise from the park to encounter minke, fin, and humpback whales in their Gulf of St. Lawrence feeding grounds.
Join a small-group, naturalist-guided whale-watching cruise departing from the heart of Forillon National Park, searching the rich, cold waters of the Baie de Gaspé for fin whales, minkes, belugas, and harbour porpoises — one of the most productive whale habitats in eastern Canada.
Venture deep into the Chic-Choc Mountains of Gaspésie National Park — the southernmost caribou habitat in North America — for a guided alpine hike above the treeline with sweeping views of a landscape that feels genuinely wild and untouched.
Discover one of Québec's most beloved and eccentric artworks — Marcel Gagnon's monumental stone sculpture garden stretching into the St. Lawrence — where 80 life-sized figures appear to wade from the sea in a haunting, joyful procession. A true bucket-list cultural surprise.
You know what to do on the day. Here is the trip it belongs to — each one opens as a whole plan, not a list: where to fly in, every port, what it runs.
