Expédition Agaguk - Minganie packages



		We start the journey going west, towards Île du Fantôme on which we land to admire the monoliths and fossils. From there, we leave to set camp on Île Quarry, passing near Île Niapiska. From the bay of Île Quarry, we can visit the island on superb wooden paths. The next morning, we leave for a visit of two significant monoliths sites, the Zoo and the Castle, both on Grande Île. Our campsite is on the north side of Grande Île, in a small bay named Petit Henri. Our itinerary for the third day depends on the weather report. In the presence of strong winds and to shield us against them, we will choose to reach our campsite on Niapiska via the north of Quarry. But in most cases, winds are low and we can pass via the south of Quarry, which route gives us the opportunity to feel and be part of the sea's immensity. Since we do not have much kayaking distance to cover on that day, we can take the time we have left during the afternoon to hike on a path linking the campsite to a group of monoliths. Among those, you will be able to have a close look at the famous "Bonne-Femme". On the fourth day, we concentrate on searching for sea mammals and on our way to our campsite on the south shore of Île du Havre, we will guide you from one of their favourite feeding spots (commonly called "soup") to the other. The last day, so soon! We leave the campsite for Île au Marteau and on our way, keeping at a respectful distance, we pass near two sea birds sanctuaries on Île à Calculot and Île aux Goélands. We land on Petite Île au Marteau for lunch and take time to visit this site, which shelters a lighthouse. And finally, it is time to paddle quietly back to Havre Saint-Pierre.
