Additional Info
Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller
Suitable for all physical fitness levels
Stroller accessible only on boat (not on zodiac).
For zodiac children under 6 years old are not allowed.
If you are traveling from Québec City or Charlevoix, it is recommended to choose the Baie-Ste-Catherine departure instead of Tadoussac. The experience is identical, as the boat will pick up passengers from both locations.
We recommend that you dress warmly even in summer, as the temperature on the water can get cooler than on land.
Our fleet contains 24 and 60-passenger Zodiacs. The choice of boat will be based on logistical reasons, therefore the size of the boat cannot be guaranteed.
Cruises operate rain or shine unless weather conditions pose a safety risk to passengers. Rest assured, the boat features an enclosed area for your comfort.
To ensure your safety and in accordance with Transport Canada standards, departure times may be adjusted if weather conditions or mechanical issues arise.
For personal expenses, only credit card payments are accepted on board (no cash)
Zodiac excursions are not advisable, and even prohibited for certain persons such as young children (under the age of 6), pregnant women, people suffering from articulation, back, or autonomy problems.
