Welcome to Baie-Comeau

A city to discover

As the voluminous waves of the St. Lawrence unfurl at its feet, Baie-Comeau, daughter of forests and sea, beckons to the world beyond its port. As soon as you set foot here, the river’s constant presence will imprint a lasting memory on your senses, and the lure to traverse its waters to see marine mammals and wild ducks won’t subside until you give in to it. Located at the crossroads of the Manicouagan tourism region in an expanse the size of some countries, Baie-Comeau and its environs will surely captivate you with its superlative scenery.

Visitors to Baie-Comeau are never far from nature, thanks to a network of bike paths that crisscross the city and link its many parks and greenspaces. As the city grew, Baie-Comeau acquired enviable facilities for recreation and outdoor pursuits, and today we offer a range of activities that will please everyone.

You’ll be captivated by our rich cultural and religious heritage, our stunning architecture and landscapes, and any of the numerous year-round cultural activities you might attend.

As a prime location for aluminium and paper production, Baie-Comeau boasts major industries that contribute to Québec’s thriving economy. Running through our midst is the mighty Manicouagan, whose Manic-2 and Manic-5 power dams—masterpieces of Québec engineering—are a source of local pride and international renown.

But above all else, the warm and welcoming people of Baie-Comeau will leave you with lasting memories of your visit. No matter how you travel here—by car, boat, or plane—you’ll marvel at the landscapes our city offers.

I invite you to come see Baie-Comeau, this pearl in nature’s jewel box, for yourself.
