We're visiting the largest migratory bird sanctuary in North America! Over 200,000 birds come to Bonaventure Island off the coast of the Gaspé Peninsula to breed and nest every year. This national park is where you find the most accessible colony of northern gannets in the entire world. It's incredible how close to them you can get! It's also the third largest colony in the world with more than 114, 000 northern gannets. They are fascinating to watch and this experience is an absolute MUST in Gaspésie. Take the boat from Percé to get a better look at iconic Percé Rock before circling Bonaventure Island. You'll get a spectacular view from the water before disembarking and hiking across the island to see the birds up close. This is one of the top wildlife experiences we've ever had and we highly recommend it. Set aside a day and pack a lunch because, trust us, you'll want to take your time witnessing this gem of nature.
We are delighted to partner with the Québec Maritime Tourism Board to bring you this new series around one of the most picturesque and historic parts of Canada. We've had a lot of requests to share more of our home country and this is the perfect time to introduce you to one of the best summer road trips in Canada.
