Park of the Pointe — Attraction in Rivière-du-Loup

Wonderful Piece Of Gem Along The St. Lawrence This is a belated review but here it goes. Came with my family twice from Ottawa (once during a bus tour in 2017 and again during our Gaspe-Maritimes road trip in Aug 2019). The latter we wanted to spend more time at the park. Tourist Info Centre was great, served in English actually. The picnic tables were actually quite clean which had an awesome view of the St. Lawrence. The sidewalk, garden, and overall ambience was pleasant with ample parking. I really had fond memories. On our 1st time while some members of the tour decided to join the whale-watching, rest of us came all the way here by foot. Nice houses along La Pointe. I'll consider coming back for a visit maybe in 2022 or...

Lovely shoreline where you can enjoy a stroll on the paved walkway with benches and picnic tables or enjoy the sand and water. You can see little critters (krill etc) and small birds. I also heard you can sometimes see sting rays and even whales in the water!

I suggest walking along the sand to admire the beautiful tectonic plate formations coming out of the ground! There were lots of people relaxing on the benches, some playing some relaxing instruments. There’s a bike path along with the walking trails and some swing benches as well.

I also saw a house that looked like it is a restaurant or cafe.

There’s good parking area across and more further down on the side...

Absolutely an amazing place to spend the day with family and friends. Lovely place to enjoy the river's breeze and take in the sunset. My local friend told me you can even see some whales from time to time, and the sunsets at this location with the mountains in the horizon is something to experience. Will come back here again and spend...
