Venture into the heart of the St. Lawrence archipelago, where 21 unique islands await exploration. The Lachance captains guide you through the local history of this captivating region, sharing ancient legends and amusing modern anecdotes. You'll discover how young couples once courted using only rowboats as their "social network", learn about the succession of island owners, and hear the curious tale of Great-Grandmother Pruneau's secret visits to Île-Marguerite.

As you cruise, you'll be surrounded by unspoiled landscapes that inspired the renowned painter Jean-Paul Riopelle. The tour offers opportunities to observe native wildlife and flora in their natural habitat, immersing you in the tranquil beauty of this lesser-known archipelago.

As you relax on the terrace, you can listen to engaging bilingual commentary about the islands' traditions and notable figures. For added comfort, a bar and bistro are available on board, offering refreshments and light snacks to suit various tastes.
