Do you like imagining shapes and figures in the clouds or creating imaginary constellations in the starry sky? You will love the Mingan Archipelago, an endless stream of islands and islets populated by stone giants. Each and every one of these famous monoliths defies imagination.
These famous stone figures are indeed the islands’ celebrities: some of them pose meekly for photographers while others strike a well thought-out pose to the sheer pleasure of nature fans. A number of these island-dwellers are well-known in their areas and others “live” in anonymity, on the lookout for greetings from wandering kayakers or appreciating a sign of admiration from campers hiking along the picturesque shore of their adopted island.
However, the beauty of these proud stone mascots is at times overshadowed by rare species of birds that turn heads and win their share of admirers! That is, until a whale quickly emerges and grabs the visitors’ attention. But the all-time attention-getters are definitely the seals… In fact, it’s one surprise after another in this diverse habitat known for its stunning geological formations and its fauna and flora.
Set sail on a memorable cruise that will challenge your sense of observation and imagination. But if you want to explore this exceptional territory more intensely, a camping-excursion by sea kayak is the best way to experience the vastness of this intricate archipelago of 27 untamed islands and nearly 1000 islets that border the coastline of the Havre-Saint-Pierre region, in the heart of Minganie.
A string of islands and islets, the omnipresent sea, a parade of sea mammals and birds, magnificent landscapes of unparalleled beauty, game-abounding forests, lakes and rivers teeming with fish, the perfect natural setting for countless outdoor activities, all chosen with care and readily available to you!
