Tadoussac Travel Guide
Map
Welcome to Tadoussac!
Tadoussac, a village of under 1,000 people, was first established in the seventeenth century as a French trading post. Today it is the oldest inhabited European settlement in Quebec and the only surviving French settlement in the Americas. This fascinating historical past, combined with the rugged beauty of the Saguenay Fjord, continuously draws tourists to the Tadoussac region. Visitors can stay in a wide range of accommodations from hotels and inns, to cottages and B&Bs and dine at one of many great local restaurants. There are a number of things to do when visiting this area. The bay provides tourists with opportunities to take a whale watching tour, enjoy a relaxing day-cruise, or see the sights aboard a seaplane, kayak or sailboat. Avid hikers and cyclists can appreciate the stunning beauty of the Saguenay region on select trails located throughout the area. The historical importance, and marine life of this small Quebec village can be experienced at the Chauvin Trading Post and Centre d'interpretation des Mammiferes Marins. For the amenities that this small town cannot provide, Alma and Chicoutimi are a mere hour-long drive from the village.Tour Operators
