For an enjoyable visit...
- Make sure your visit is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible by bringing warm clothing, walking shoes, and rain gear if necessary.

We suggest...
- The length of visit varies according to the package offered by the ferry service. We recommend that you plan on spending a minimum of four hours at the site.
- A dining room and picnic tables are also provided. There are no meal services so we suggest that you pack a lunch or pre-order your lunch from Les Croisières Lachance if travelling by boat to the island.
