Ile Bonaventure

Bonaventure Island is an island located in the Gaspésie region in eastern Quebec. It is protected because of its high ecological value, this due to the fact that a huge colony of gannets choose to nest there every year. Also, many gray seals and birds spend the summer there. It is part of the National Park de l'Ile Bonaventure Et Du Rocher Percé, in the village of Percé. The island is accessible by boat which takes in the main spring of Percé. The boat takes you to return to the island to get a chance to see the sea from atop the cliffs of the north. There the alacatreces settle and bask in all of the seals.
