Things to see and do Duplessis

This bay is located on the north shore of the island, about 10 kilometres from the waterfall and Vauréal Canyon. All you have to do is take a 14-kilometre secondary road to get there. The bay of the Tower is dominated by the superb limestone cliffs of Easton Point, which fall steeply into the sea. A pebble beach borders the gulf - for those who want to dip in the crystal clear waters - and it is not uncommon to see seals, whales and all kinds of seabirds in the area.

This site is a locality located south of Baie-Sainte-Claire and west of Port-Menier, facing the sea and the cove of the same name. Founded at the end of the 19th century, it was once a fishing village but was abandoned at the beginning of the last century, only a few decades after its foundation. Unfortunately, there are very few remains of this period, including two houses and the village cemetery. He buried his last body in 1920. If you are in the area, the place is worth a stop.

Pointe-de-l'Ouest is located one kilometre south of Baie-Sainte-Claire. It is home to the island's first lighthouse, which was built in 1858 (although the new structure dates from 1967), and its light extends for 50 km around. Despite a series of lighthouses built in the 19th century, shipwrecks remained numerous. Since the 18th century, 200 ships have reportedly sunk in the vicinity of the island. Near the coast, you can see the wreck of the trawler Le Calou, which was stranded in 1982. You should know that you will also find a youth hostel a few steps away.
