Fjord en Kayak

Fjord en Kayak offers you a paddling adventure in the heart of a remarkable environment: the Saguenay Fjord and the Saguenay–St. Lawrence Marine Park. Located in L’Anse-Saint-Jean, which has been recognized by the Association of the Most Beautiful Villages of Québec, the company offers excursions for all kayaking levels, from beginner to expert. Packages lasting from several hours to several days (kayak camping) are available.

Experienced and friendly guides will introduce you to the beauty of the Saguenay and the St. Lawrence by telling you about this area’s natural environment and history. Keep your eyes peeled: You may encounter any of the 13 species of marine mammals that frequent the waters of the St. Lawrence or observe seabirds.

In 2002 and 2010, Fjord en Kayak won Québec’s most prestigious tourism award: a gold Québec Tourism Award (Grand Prix du tourisme québécois). Our shop, which is located on the shore of the fjord, gives you access to various marine activities: sea kayaking excursions, cruises on the fjord or on the St. Lawrence River, and sailing expeditions. On sunny days, you can also rent lake kayaks or bikes on site.
