There is nothing like watching and hugging a new born white coat with its large, dark, round, liquid pools for eyes.  Being with the wild seal on an ice flow is an adventure like no other.

Tour packages can be reservations can be made at the Chateau Madelinot for 3 to 6 nights, breakfasts, helicopter excursion to the ice flows and a guided visit of the Magdalen Islands. The packages are only available for the first three weeks in March and only with the proper weather conditions.

Unfortunately, this year the seal watching adventure tours had to be canceled due to the fact that there is no ice in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence.  The seal herd didn’t arrive to have their pups anywhere near enough to the islands to take visitors to see the and because there is no ice, there is no place to land a helicopter.
