Camping Baie de Gaspe

Continuing our tour of Gaspesie we camped a few miles from the quaint little town of Gaspe – pictured to the right. The highlight was an evening meal by Audrey and Theda. Delicious soup, salad, and baklava (pictures lost). Then on to the town of Perce where the “Rock with the whole in it” attracts tourists.  We camped with a view.

Camping Cote Surprise

We took this picture of the town and rock after Mike Sasuta, in four wheel drive, ventured to the top of Mont-Blanc overlook. Perce was alive with tourists, offered many restaurants, and ferries to Bonaventure Island where tens of thousands of Gannets reside.

Camping Carleton sur-mer

This was just a one night stand and a very nice campground pictured on the right. Carleton is set in a very popular tourist area.
