❖ SAINT-LAWRENCE
Cruises and water activities on the Saint Lawrence
The Saint Lawrence River is the soul of Quebec. AML Cruises, sailing, kayaking, whale watching: water activities on Canada’s largest river are as numerous as they are unforgettable.
AML Cruises
Leader since 1972
From the docks of the Old Port, AML Cruises offers excursions on the river, islands, and fjords of Quebec. The undisputed leader in water activities from Quebec.

Whale cruise
The giants of the Saint Lawrence
The Saguenay fjord and the Saint Lawrence estuary are among the best places in the world to observe whales. A natural spectacle of rare intensity, just two hours from Quebec.
Humpback whales and belugas
Humpback whales, blue whales, and belugas frequent the waters of the Saint Lawrence between June and October. From Tadoussac, 2 hours from Quebec, zodiac tours allow close encounters with these marine giants. An experience that changes your perspective on the river.

Sailing and kayaking
Navigate independently
The Quebec Sailing Club and sea kayak operators allow you to experience the Saint Lawrence actively and independently. Two disciplines, two radically different relationships with the river.
Quebec Sailing Club
The Quebec Sailing Club offers courses for beginners and advanced sailors, regattas, and group outings on the Saint Lawrence. A friendly club to discover sailing on one of the most impressive rivers in the world.
Kayaking from the Old Port
Sea kayak operators offer guided outings from the Old Port along the shores to the Samuel-de-Champlain Promenade. A unique perspective on the architecture of Old Quebec and the Citadel, seen from the river.
✦ Barista Tip
Before boarding for a cruise on the Saint Lawrence, stop by Carrera Cafe for an espresso or an iced latte to go. The river breeze is invigorating, but nothing beats specialty coffee as the starting fuel. On your return to the Old Port, join us for a well-deserved post-cruise break.
Before the cruise
Carrera Cafe, stopover at the Old Port
Quebec Old Port is 5 minutes from Petit-Champlain. Carrera Cafe is the natural stop before or after your nautical adventures on the Saint Lawrence.
Nautical fuel
A double espresso or a latte before boarding. Caffeine is the best sailing companion. Carrera Cafe is 5 minutes from the AML boarding dock. A quick stop, quality coffee, and off to the river.
Return to the port
After a day on the Saint Lawrence, returning to Petit-Champlain for a gourmet board and a cortado is the best ritual. Organic charcuterie from Charlevoix and local cheeses restore the senses after the river spray.
The river is waiting for you, and so are we
Before setting off with AML Cruises or kayaking on the Saint Lawrence, stop by Carrera Cafe. The best start is always the one that begins with a good coffee.
