What to Do in Gaspésie in May
In May, why not take advantage of the long weekend celebrating National Patriots’ Day (or Victoria Day in the rest of Canada) to hit the road in Gaspésie? This is a great time of year to go for a stroll along a beach, discover a lighthouse, hike between sea and mountains, or watch northern gannets returning to the region.
May is also when fresh lobster reappears on restaurant menus and in fish markets. Some businesses also begin their summer operations, but we strongly recommend checking directly with the ones you want to visit before planning your stay.
