Sea-kayaking at Havre-Saint-Pierre

Duration: 9 hours

Information

Between the port's activities and the island's calm

In front of the village of Havre-Saint-Pierre, several islands are accessible from the coast. We will navigate in a marine environment suitable for sea-kayaking. Depending on the sea conditions, we may decide to go around the Havre island to see the faces hidden in its cliffs, go for a hike and stop for lunch along the way. When the weather permits, we will go alongside the monoliths of Île Fantôme, or we can let ourselves be stunned by the bustling life of the birds of Île aux Goélands or Île à Calculot.

The area is relatively protected from the winds since it is surrounded by islands and islets.

Out at sea with the puffins

Île aux Perroquets is the gateway to the Mingan archipelago. Found offshore from the village of Longue-Pointe-de-Mingan, it’s a bucket-list destination for seasoned kayakers.

During your day with us, depending on currents and winds, we will explore Île aux Perroquets, Île de la Maison and Île du Wreck — a magical area that time forgot, where the birds are masters. We might have the chance to see seals, porpoises, minke whales and more marine wildlife along the way. There’s always a surprise in these waters that are teeming with life.

To choose a sea-kayak rather than a motorboat to get to the archipelago, is to choose to take the time to truly savour Côte-Nord’s incredible wilderness. It’s the perfect expedition to connect with a rare and beautiful marine environment.To reach the islands, we will feel the wind, the swell of the waves, the sun and the currents during a 45-minute open-water crossing. This is a real offshore sea-kayaking experience. If you wish to call yourself a sea-kayaker, then this trip is for you.


Sports trip - Advanced level - experience required​

For this more challenging trip, we ask participants to have previous sea-kayaking experience and good overall physical fitness.

The Grande Île experience

Grande île is located in the heart of the Mingan archipelago. It is the largest island in the archipelago, one of the wildest and most majestic. As it is far from Havre-Saint-Pierre, and few adventurers have the chance to discover it.

Grande Ile has its personality. Its cliffs are unique and imposing and there are several groupings of monoliths, including the Castle and the Zoo. It is home to impressive seal colonies and of numerous seabirds. On foot, we can observe several rare plants that frequent the island, where the tundra landscapes often look like the Arctic.

We depart from Havre-Saint-Pierre by zodiac to reach the Grande Île, from where we will leave by sea-kayak. During this cruise, we will navigate in the Mingan channel and cross the islands of the central sector of the archipelago. This navigation is often the opportunity to observe marine mammals and on the return, a beautiful moment appreciate the end of the day.

Once there, we find ourselves in a place little frequented by visitors. Then, it’s adventure depending on the tides and the weather, kayaking along the shores and hiking to visit part of the coastline of the Grande Île.
