Southeastern Quebec Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels
About Southeastern Quebec
This is the most "maritime" part of Quebec. Its economy and culture are, much like neighbouringNew EnglandorAtlantic Canada, heavily influenced by the sea. This area was explored by Europeans (mainly people from theBasque-speaking region of France) hunting for whales, before becoming a French-speaking agricultural settlement using theSt. Lawrence Riverfor transportation. Nowadays, whale-watching, not hunting, is an important industry here along with fishing and farming.
