Carl P. Abran

Maxime Soulier

(Translated) For the modest sum of $ 5 a visit with an interesting audio guide on a superb site ... But special mention for the small treasure hunt for children, very well done and that allow to visit with family! Very clever, bravo! (Original) Pour la modique somme de 5$ une visite avec audioguide intéressante sur un site superbe... Mais mention spéciale pour la petite chasse aux trésors pour les enfants, très bien faite et qui permettent de faire la visite en famille! Très malin, bravo!

Stuart Bowland

Friendly staff. Easy access. Cheap entry fee but not that much to see.

Pierre Lemieux (Mononk Pierre)

(Translated) Disappointed with my visit, it would be more appropriate to talk about walking on the waterfront rather than visiting a maritime park. But as I have mentioned to visitors arriving when we left, for $ 5.00 you shouldn't expect too much. (Original) Déçu de ma visite, ce serait plus approprié de parler de marche sur le bord de l'eau plutôt qu'une visite de parc maritime. Mais comme j'ai mentionné à des visiteurs qui arrivaient à notre départ, pour 5.00$ faut pas s'attendre à des merveilles.

Sean Allen

Great local museum. $5 per adult.

jobot

Interesting historic site, especially if you are interested in boat building.

David Gay

(Translated) Charging to see 3 sailor knots, it's a bit abused, especially when you've just eaten in the restaurant Nothing is closing to tell us that we have to go through the counter and pay (Original) Faire payer pour voir 3 nœud marin, c'est un peu abusé surtout quand l'on vient de manger dans le restaurant Rien n'est clôturer pour nous indiquer qu'il faut passer le guichet et payer

Andrew Kish

Interesting place about the history of the isle. The tour is worth it.

Frank Wermenlinger

(Translated) There aren't a lot of attractions and content. Because of the pandemic, you had to wait long enough to visit the two small museums. It would be nice to invest and redo the exterior dock and have guided tours. (Original) Il n'y a pas beaucoup d'attractions et de contenu. À cause de la pandémie, il fallait attendre assez longtemps pour visiter les deux petits musées. Ce serait bien d'investir et de refaire le quai extérieur et d'avoir des visites guidés.

Ze Caravane

(Translated) Great place to visit, relax, do water activities. There is a small museum, picnic tables and plenty of space to walk around.

Nice small place about maritime history, nice and clean but the staff not so nice.

Shame the staffs attitude really let this place down.

Interesting place. If you're into history, it's worth a visit.

(Translated) Great place to take pictures, we can learn more about the island's maritime life, testimonials, boats, buoys, rowboats, even a "manufacturing workshop".

In addition, we see the remains of the site and we can easily imagine how it was life at that time. (Original) Super endroit pour prendre des photos, on peut en apprendre plus sur la vie maritime de l'île, des témoignages, des bateaux, des bouées, des chaloupes, même un "atelier de fabrication".

En plus, on voit les vestiges du chantier et on peut s'imaginer facilement comment c'était la vie dans ce temps là.

Funny Mr Ben

Но брать за посещение крошечного домика с лодочками деньги?! Было очень обидно купить билеты и практически ничего не увидеть. Место очень красивое, но мы там пробыли ровно 10 мин.
