Spectacular Icebergs 6 Nights / 7 Days

0
  • 6 Nights - 7 Days
  • Available from June 6 to July 8, 2025
  • Double occupancy

This “once-in-a-lifetime” journey, offered exclusively by Voyages Coste, takes you to the far end of the Côte-Nord, along the Gulf of Saint Lawrence!

  • Round-trip flights with Air Liaison / Blanc-Sablon

A true introduction to “the other Québec,” where a maritime life was resolutely established thanks to the resilience of pioneers and fishermen who came from “upstream” (from the upper reaches of the river), from France, Jersey Island, the Basque Country, Norway, and Iceland, and more recently from Newfoundland.

After flying over the great river, hundreds of kilometres of the Lower North Shore coastline, boreal forests, lakes, rivers, and the many islands that characterize this unexplored region of Québec, your plane lands at Lourdes-de-Blanc-Sablon: a mythical village once far removed from urban centres.

This is where your experience begins in a corner of the continent that Jacques Cartier once dubbed the “Land of Cain.”

Here, in Blanc-Sablon and the neighbouring localities that make up the municipality of Bonne-Espérance, regional life is resolutely organized with services that only the resilience of pioneers and the dynamism of the locals can explain.

We are on the edge of Newfoundland Labrador, which you will have the chance to explore after driving the last stretch of this distant Route 138 to Vieux-Fort.

Everything here springs from the fabulous history of great hunts and great fisheries that have taken place over the centuries.

Switching from French to Newfoundland English, you might notice Inuit origins in some locals: distinctions, but a shared community spirit spanning more than two hundred kilometers of coastline, which you will briefly leave to see the icebergs lingering as they pass through the Strait of Belle Isle in the cool summer days at this latitude.

After breakfast at your inn, head west on Route 138 towards the municipality of Bonne Espérance, which includes 3 villages: Middle Bay, Rivière-Saint-Paul, and Vieux-Fort. Stop at the Middle Bay Interpretation Centre and the Whiteley Museum in Rivière-St-Paul.

Continue to Vieux-Fort, where interpretation panels will inform you about Jacques Cartier’s journey. Check into your inn for a delicious dinner and overnight stay.
