Katabatik - Aventure en Charlevoix specializes in water activities, adventures and ecotourism in Charlevoix. Located in Baie-Saint-Paul, 60 minutes from Quebec City, the base camp offers authentic experiences and outdoor activities accessible to everyone, including beginners.

We offer a guided sea kayak service on the St. Lawrence in Cap-à-l'Aigle and Baie-Saint-Paul, day or half-day, as well as descents of the Rivière du Gouffre in Baie-Saint-Paul recreational kayak, with several levels of difficulty and different distances to travel.

Other adventure activities such as paddle boarding, paragliding, canyoning, and hybrid bike rental are also available. Finally, winter activities, ski-racket excursions in the parks of Sepaq, are offered during winter weekends.

The box office shop also sells kites and kayaks.

Ultimate ecotouristic destination 

The Parc de la Rivière-des-Mille-Îles is the perfect place to enjoy the great outdoors. A unique attraction, this protected wildlife area is the largest in the metropolitan region. What could be more exciting than watching the animal world in its natural habitat?

Admire the flora of the many marshes, islands and shores of this oasis. You can rent a canoe, kayak, rabaska, pedal boat or rowboat. Stroll through the islands of the important Sainte-Rose archipelago and hike the many hiking trails.

Climb aboard the Blue Heron in the company of a naturalist and interpreter guide for a historical and ecological one-and-a-half hour cruise. The site is just as popular in winter with cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, sliding, skating and ice fishing. The redevelopment work in the reception area on the banks of the Garrot River is worthy of note; a project that represents a total investment of $10.7 million.

Sea kayaking, whale watching and camping

We provide people with the opportunity to commune with nature while enjoying a relaxing sea kayaking or lodging experience. For over 30 years, Mer et monde ecotours has been offering guided sea kayaking activities so visitors can discover the unique marine environment of the St. Lawrence River.

Unique and personalized excursions
in Tadoussac Bay in the land of whales

A unique place in the world, the Saguenay-St. Lawrence Marine Park stands out for its bio-diversity and its grandiose landscapes. Home to numerous birds and marine mammals, a crossroads where a river and a fjord meet, it is a place to be discovered and rediscovered.

A local company, the Tadoussac Autrement group offers you the opportunity to explore the waters of the park in three different and unique ways. Aboard the Grosse-Île Schooner, in a Zodiac or by sea kayak, you can set out to meet the river in the way that suits you best. All in a human, eco-responsible and personalized atmosphere.

On the ice, on the water or in the middle of the forest, we take the time to make you live the unique adventure of nature in all its beauty while focusing on the principles of sustainable development.

We offer black bear observation evenings, discovery cruises on Lac Saint-Jean as well as boat and ice fishing on Lac Saint-Jean.

Aventure Lac Saint-Jean's passionate guides invite you to discover the hidden treasures of the magnificent Lac Saint-Jean, only in small groups at a time to ensure a quality experience.
