WE SAW BELUGA WHALES! One of the most magical wildlife experiences of our lives! Join Adeel and Dolly as we explore the stunning coastal villages along the St. Lawrence River and witness incredible beluga whales at Tadoussac, Quebec!
Our adventure takes us further east along the breathtaking St. Lawrence River, where the river transforms into what looks like an ocean! We discovered charming, quaint coastal villages that feel like hidden gems of Quebec - each one more beautiful than the last.
At the Marine Interpretation Centre in Tadoussac, we embarked on a scenic hike to the rocky coast with our binoculars in hand... and WOW! We spotted BELUGA WHALES in their natural habitat! Watching these magnificent creatures in the wild was absolutely exhilarating! 🐋
The day ended at Paradise Marine campground - and let us tell you, it lives up to its name! Despite the rain, we managed to secure a spot at one of the best campsites in the region. Setting up in the rain was challenging, but the location is absolutely magical!
