Our Gaspé road trip continues with a sunny day of sightseeing followed by a dinner of the best seafood in Gaspé. We start out at the lighthouse in Carletonsurmer and soak up its laidback holiday vibes. Next we visit Ferme Bourdages, a strawberry farm that makes its own strawberry wine along with lots of other products. There’s a cafe and shop so we order a super fresh strawberry milkshake to go. Further along the road, we stretch our legs in New Carlisle by strolling along the accessible boardwalk on the beach. After that we visit the Paspébiac National Historic Site which has been at the heart of the cod fishing industry since 1767. You can tour the original buildings, watch the blacksmith make nails using bellows that date back to 1840, and learn all about how the cod export business grew and shaped history. It’s a fascinating place. After working up a hunger, we make another stop at Mich Cafe in Chandler where you can enjoy your food and drinks outside while sitting in giant tea cups. Next up is a roadside stop to see the picturesque wharf in L’anseàBeaufils where the colourful boats are charming. Before arriving in Percé, we pull over at a lookout point that offers a great first look down to iconic Percé Rock. We arrive at magic hour when the light is lighting up the rock in yellow and orange hues. Ready for dinner, we pull in to La Maison du Pêcheur, located right on the water, for a fantastic meal of fresh, local Gaspésienne cuisine. This restaurant is a musteat in Percé (reserve ahead so you don’t miss out!).
We are delighted to partner with the Québec Maritime Tourism Board to bring you this new series around one of the most picturesque and historic parts of Canada. We've had a lot of requests to share more of our home country and this is the perfect time to introduce you to one of the best summer road trips in Canada.
