Lawrence River and the Saquenay
Fjord in the eastern part of the Charlevoix region. A ferry connects Baie-Sainte-Catherine

tourists visit Baie-Sainte-Catherine annually, especially for whale-watching and
fjord cruises operated by companies such as Croisieres

of the St. Lawerence estuary and Saquenay Fjord. Additional parks in the region
