LA GALOUÏNE
In the Acadian vernacular language (witness to the first owners’ roots), the “galouïne” is a sudden and violent storm, similar to what sailors call the squall.
For us, La Galouïne Inn and Restaurant, is an establishment which stands out by the complete lodging and catering services it offers.
Our establishment is located in the heart of the village and gives you the opportunity to move around without a vehicule. You will then be able to take advantage of the activities and to admire Tadoussac’s many jewels.
Tadoussac
Tadoussac, 408 years of history. Located in the province of Québec, where the Saguenay River meets the Saint-Lawrence River, Tadoussac is 408 years old. First settlement in North America in 1600, the village of the time became a meeting place for the fur trade with the Natives. Today, the village is located at the heart of the world’s first Marine Park (Parc Marin du Saguenay) where one finds the beluga, blue whale, the minke whale, finback, porpoises, dolphines, seals and many bird species because Tadoussac is situated right in their migration route. Its sea-mammals interpretation center (CIMM) is a reference throughout the world both for its research on sea-mammals and for the quality of its exhibition where naturalists will give you information on the latest discoveries about the Saint-Lawrence river whales. Tadoussac provides whale-watching excursions, which are known as having the best observation conditions.
A nature to discover!
