Bic National Park, National park in Rimouski, Canada.
The park stretches along the Saint Lawrence River with capes, mountains, and rocky coves forming a natural coastal environment of 33.2 square kilometers.
The territory of Parc National du Bic served as a strategic maritime location for ships navigating the Saint Lawrence River since the early colonial period.
The park maintains interpretive centers that explain maritime traditions, regional flora, and the relationship between local communities and the Saint Lawrence ecosystem.
Visitors can access 25 kilometers of walking trails, rent bicycles at Rivière-du-Sud-Ouest sector, and observe seals from designated viewing platforms.
The park houses two colonies of harbor seals and gray seals that gather on the rocks during low tide throughout the seasons.

Quebec provides varied photographic settings across a province that combines French colonial heritage with extensive natural landscapes. In Quebec City, the stone buildings of Old Quebec, Fairmont Le Château Frontenac, and Montmorency Falls with its 83-meter drop form key subjects. The historic Quartier Petit Champlain, Frontenac Staircase, and Grande-Allée display the city's European-influenced architecture, while the Plains of Abraham and Observatoire de la Capitale offer vantage points. Montreal presents different photographic opportunities with Notre-Dame Basilica, Saint Joseph's Oratory on Mount Royal, and contemporary facilities like the Biosphère and Grande Roue. Lachine Canal and street art along Boulevard Saint-Laurent add to urban captures. The Gaspé Peninsula, Jacques-Cartier National Park, Laurentides Wildlife Reserve, and locations like Île d'Orléans and Mont-Tremblant show the province's natural terrain. The Saint Lawrence River connects many of these sites as the primary waterway, from its lower reaches near Rimouski to the riverbanks at Montreal and Quebec City.
