Lovely little town with plenty of opportunities for whale watching, both from shore and on guided boat trips. Very picturesque harbour area, excellent whale museum (well worth a visit), and great restaurants and cafes. We stayed for 3 nights and saw plenty.

The people were very friendly, food was excellent (we only ate at cafe Boem though) you can't park anywhere without paying and it is not cheap at $CAD 5 / hour, overall we had a great time as it is a nice little town in middle of nowhere - was brilliant for us and nice change from big cities.

We only spent one night in Tadoussac, and that was definitely too short. The town lies on the confluence of the Saguenay fjord with the great St. Lawrence river. There is a quality of light to the place. Walk along the beach, then take a walk around the Pointe d'Islet (in both directions). If you are lucky you might see whales (we were unlucky). Definitely visit the whale museum which houses whale skeletons. It sounds a bit morbid but in fact the exhibit is modern and very good. The staff, who are also researchers, are very enthusiastic and bring their subject to life. Plenty of restaurants. Next time we will stay longer and chill.

It is an old hotel with lots of charm. The large salon facing the St-Lawrence river and the chairs on the lawn are both inviting and relaxing. There was a singer at the bar who made the evenings very enjoyable! There are no refrigerators in the rooms though.

Tadoussac is a wonderful place. The landscape is fantastically beautiful. The history of the area is fascinating. The local people are friendly and welcoming. In spite of the large amounts of tourism in the area Parks Canada does a wonderful job of keeping the wilderness preserved and the native flora and fauna intact. Seeing whales and other marine life in an unspoiled wild environment is a truly special and beautiful experience.

Tadoussac has a lovely picturesque bay and of course the famous whale watching boat trips leave from the harbour. The town is very small but there are lovely drives along the Saguenay fjord . I recommend you ask for information at the local Tourist Office and make sure to drive down to the little "anses" along the way on the Saguenay river which give you a beautiful, scenic view. We stayed 2 nights which seemed perfect.
