Wild Saguenay Fjord Sea Kayaking Tour Overview
Come live an unforgettable experience on the three-day Wild Saguenay Fjord Sea Kayaking Tour that immerses you in the wildest part of the Fjord of Saguenay, the Saguenay-St. Lawrence Marine Park. In partnership with the Fjord-du-Saguenay National Park, you’ll enjoy an outdoor and gastronomic adventure, an incomparable experience.
During this remarkable three-day expedition, you will discover the majestic 400-meter capes of the Saguenay Fjord and its islands. You may even see its belugas! Note that Fjord en Kayak respects all the restrictions and regulations regarding the presence of beluga whales, mainly keeping a distance of 400 meters from them.
Get ready to fall in love with the fjord and its legends, relax in a peaceful haven surrounded by wild, unspoiled nature, and meet its incredible fauna, such as seals, belugas, minke whales, birds of prey, seabirds and more.
