ACTIVITIES FOR EVERYONE

Once on the island, you’ll be tempted by a wide range of self-guided activities, including all on-land outdoor activities in the Discovery package, plus non-motorized water activities in the Adventure package:

  • Single or double kayak
  • Stand-up paddleboarding
  • Rabaska

  • Pétanque
  • Shuffleboard
  • Axe throwing
  • Disc golf
  • Badminton
  • Finnish skittles
  • Soccer

Whether you’re a beginner or an expert, there’s something for every skill level and taste. High-quality equipment is provided, and a staff member on-site can guide you if needed. Since visitor safety is a priority, a life jacket and a safety kit are provided to every participant on the water. Please note that the minimum age to operate a boat alone is 13, and children under 7 must remain under parental supervision on the island. Adventure Package holders can enhance their experience by renting an E-Surf for $80, allowing them to reach speeds of up to 55 km/h on the water with ease.

A WELL-DESERVED RELAXING BREAK

After a morning or afternoon packed with water activities and outdoor games, treat yourself to a well-deserved break. Settle right in at a picnic table shaded by a parasol, or on the covered terrace offering a breathtaking view of the river. Breathe in the fresh air, let yourself be lulled by the gentle murmur of the water, and savor every moment.

Don’t forget to bring a bottle of water, a meal, or a snack to enjoy on site. Although there are no dining services on the island, the available facilities let you fully enjoy your meal outdoors. It’s the perfect opportunity to share a pleasant moment with family, as a couple, or with friends, while admiring the nature around you.
