Authentic Bas-Saint-Laurent: bountiful nature, plenty of charm and a simple way of life
The gateway to the Bas-Saint-Laurent, stretching from La Pocatière (the birthplace of Canadian agriculture) to Saint-André-de-Kamouraska (a rock climbing paradise), Kamouraska is famous for its unique coastal vistas. With imposing cabourons (monadnocks), stunning sunsets, hiking trails and picturesque villages, Kamouraska is a choice destination for tourists travelling along the Route des Navigateurs and through the hilly backcountry.
Winter in Kamouraska
In the winter, Kamouraska’s landscapes change daily with the winds and tides. There’s nothing quite like a walk along the coast to appreciate it in all its splendour.
Summer in Kamouraska
Cabourons along the shoreline, agricultural panoramas, and picturesque villages dotted with ancestral houses, boutiques and culinary stores make the region famous.
Arts and culture
Kamouraska is famous for its arts and cultural scene, including circus shows, the Symposium de peinture (an art festival), the Festival Archipel (a living arts festival), craft boutiques, an art centre, museums and numerous galleries.
Local products
Eel, wild mushrooms and glasswort are just some of the region’s star culinary products. And there are plenty of fine restaurants putting a fresh spin on the typical flavours of Kamouraska, and showcasing local products (whether they’re fresh from the St. Lawrence or the region’s pastures) and talent.
The St. Lawrence River
The mighty St. Lawrence and its islands never fail to impress. And it’s no surprise, what with our stunning sunsets over the horizon, kayak and zodiac trips, picnics on the beach and walking along the aboiteaux (tidal dams).
History and heritage
The St. Lawrence and its unique cabourons form the backdrop of a wealth of built heritage just waiting to be explored, like the Moulin Paradis, Maison Chapais and the Chapelle du quai.
