Located in the St. Lawrence Estuary, Parc national du Bic proudly showcases its capes, bays, coves, islands, and mountains, emblems of its renown. Think of the sounds and smells of the sea or the caress of a maritime breeze. Imagine a breathtaking sunset, considered to be one of the world's finest. Seabirds come to nest in the park, and rare plants bloom on its rocky capes. Visitors are delighted by seals basking in the sun near the shore.
Mingle with the sea, the forest and the meadow along the shores of the St. Lawrence Estuary, and surrender to the unique experience of this coastal marine park.
