Les Escoumins Area

An Exceptional Nature

The area that stretches from Les Escoumins to Ragueneau along the St. Lawrence River presents an extraordinary fauna and flora. Outdoor activity enthusiasts will truly enjoy this area where all the reasons are good to observe nature. In fact, this area is one of the most sought-after diving sites in Canada because of its flourishing marine life.

The Marine Environment Discovery Centre also presents the sea bottoms with biologists. Of course, like everywhere else in the Manicouagan region, marine mammal observation is one of the main activities to take part in during a cruise or a sea kayak excursion. The Centre de villégiature de Papinachois will make you discover the area’s history, while the beautiful white sand beaches invite you to enjoy the warm summer sun.
