THE NORTH SHORE: DUPLESSIS
A true change in scenery... and fantastic unforgettable memories!  
 

When you arrive on the North Shore you enter a universe where you can hear the surrounding silence, where shapes and colours compete with beauty and the northern light, where breezes whisper of the wide open sea, where the bounty of the land and sea delight the gourmet, where you can touch eternity…
 
The North Shore means fine cuisine with flavour that goes on forever… It is also home to two tourism regions: Manicouagan and Duplessis. In fact, our two regions have joined forces to offer a unique concept – we call it Savour the Whale Route – that allows visitors to discover a range of regional products and foods. Look for the whale with the chef’s toque in our regional guides; the logo identifies businesses passionate about offering savoury fare typical of the North Shore. And don’t forget our gourmet networks, Nature in a thousand flavours and Fruits and flowers of the land. These two business associations invite you to discover restaurateurs, processors and producers who work hard to develop local products.
 
The table is set to welcome you… with a menu featuring crab, shrimp, fish, molluscs, cloudberries, blueberries, bilberries, cranberries, mushrooms and so many other delights that will tickle your palate. Visit our fish stores filled with the freshest products, set off to pick some cultivated or wild berries, savour Mère Michelle’s fudge, or some of the coulis and jams prepared by Imagiterre. If your journey takes you to the Mingan Islands area, stop in at the Maison de la Chicoutai to learn all about “bake apples”.
 
You’re looking for something a bit more exotic? Discover the picturesque charm of the Innu community inhabiting eight reserves in the Manicouagan and Duplessis regions. Or head off to the Lower North Shore to explore the seductive nature of the land.
 
If you’re looking for a total change in scenery and fantastic unforgettable memories, why not come to the North Shore!
