Come aboard Le Commandant Charcot for an unforgettable voyage.

Winter is almost over. Although the ice has begun to break up in the, a blanket of white still covers the tops of the conifers that make up the boreal forest. From the delicious comfort of Le Commandant Charcot, the cliffs of Gaspé and Forillon National Park hide the mysteries of the hinterland. Meanwhile, on the shores of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, the majestic wooded expanses formed by sugar maples, yellow birches and American beeches still wear a cloak of white. On Greenland's frozen south-west coast, the sheer vastness of the landscape stops time as the broken ice takes possession of the land. Here, the colour white reveals its nuances in the drifting icebergs, broken sea ice, majestic fjords and jagged mountains that form the changing landscape.  At this exceptional time of year, when spring is in the air, you will have the chance to meet the Inuit communities and experience authentic moments of connection.

We are privileged guests in these extreme lands, where we are at the mercy of the weather and ice conditions. Our commitment to respecting this environment imposes certain rules of conduct. Our navigation, particularly in the fjords, will be determined by the type of ice we encounter; as the coastal ice must be preserved, we will take this factor into account each day when charting our itineraries.The sailing programme, shore visits, activities and wildlife sightings cannot be guaranteed and are subject to weather and ice conditions. These experiences are unique and vary from day to day and for each departure. The captain and naturalists will make every effort to ensure that your experience is as rich as possible, while complying with all applicable safety and AECO regulations.
