Each excursion immerses you in a unique aspect of St. Lawrence marine life. Choose the experience that inspires you! <\/p>

Set sail aboard the C-E Marin Exploramer for a science-themed excursion to discover the marine biodiversity of the St. Lawrence. Watch as crab, whelk or lobster traps are hauled, test your fishing skills, or step into the role of oceanographer. After returning to the wharf, you\u2019ll see the St. Lawrence in a whole new light. <\/p>

The C-E Marin Exploramer can hold 31 people in its enclosed cabin, including one wheelchair passenger (call 418-763-2500 to book this space). On board, you\u2019ll find bathrooms, a laboratory, observation tables, and specialized fishing gear. <\/span><\/p>

Sea excursions are subject to cancellation without notice due to weather conditions.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
