Location: This park is about 30 minutes away from the village of Tadoussac. Just take the 138 until you see the sign! There's a parking area though in high season, I would suggest getting there earlier.

The centers themselves were well equipped and had lots of information and very helpful bilingual staff. We were able to get in for free given that we had the Parks Canada Annual Pass! We would have loved to spend more time here, next time, we'll bring a lunch and spend the...
