Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé National Park
Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé National Park, National park and bird sanctuary at Gaspé Peninsula, Quebec
The park encompasses Bonaventure Island and Percé Rock, with five trails extending across meadows, forests, and coastal areas totaling 15 kilometers.
The Quebec government established this conservation area on February 6, 1985 to protect the bird sanctuary and geological formations near Percé village.
Former residential buildings on Bonaventure Island demonstrate the daily routines of fishing families who lived there during the nineteenth century.
Access to Bonaventure Island requires boat transportation from Percé village, with services operating between June and October depending on weather conditions.
The park houses North America's largest migratory bird sanctuary, including a colony of 116,000 Northern Gannets nesting on the island's cliffs.
