Peace and Tranquility in Bas-Saint-Laurent


Parc du BicThis week on the Travel Show the beautiful Bas Saint-Laurent Region of Québec. Just 2 hours drive from Québec City, the Region is bounded by the mighty Saint Lawrence river on one side and the border with Maine and New Brunswick on the other.

KayakingBas-Saint-Laurent was one of Québec’s earliest resort destinations and remains popular today thanks to its fine restaurants, comfortable accommodations, panoramic landscapes, relaxing spas, outdoor activities and… peace and tranquility.

Families, couples, seniors and outdoor lovers will all find lots on offer. Visit an authentic submarine, cross Québec’s highest suspension bridge, sleep in a lighthouse or learn about eel fishing. Or relax, admiring wonderful sunsets and sipping maple wines. Visit www.bassaintlaurent.ca for ideas of Tours and Trails that you can explore.

Relive the emotion of the ship's last voyage, when over 1000 people lost their lives.
