Bonaventure Island National Park is a beautiful chance to go to observe the northern gannets from close up, these fabulous migratory birds have chosen the island as a stop off point.
My suggestion
Get on the first shuttle boat and, if you do it like I did, you can have a well-filled day: visit the island in the morning and go to see the whales in the afternoon!

My suggestion
Allow a good half day for your trip to Bonaventure Island. The sea can be very rough, so it's a good idea to check the weather beforehand!
If you are taking off for Canada, and especially for Quebec, we can help you plan so you can travel eco-responsibly! Because Quebec has its own eco-tourism label: Aventure Écotourisme Québec. You can trust them... but still keep your eyes open!
