The Saguenay Fjord was formed four billion years ago when the retreat of glaciers carved a deep cravass into the landscape that eventually became a passageway for the Saguenay River. At the mouth of the fjord, fresh water mixes with salt waterm creating a truly unique marine environment, home to at least 60 species of fish and the famous beluga whale.  Send an Email
