Interpretation centre on marine mammals (CIMM)
The CIMM sits on the rock by the Saguenay Fjord and the St. Lawrence River, in Tadoussac. The CIMM is the most popular museum in the Côte-Nord region, receiving nearly 35,000 visitors a year. It’s an unforgettable experience! Come face to face with a 13-metre long sperm whale and explore the world of whales through original videos, cetacean acoustics activities, games, a skeleton collection and an exclusive film. Specialists are on hand to answer your questions, and the purchases you make at the boutique will contribute to funding whale research projects. And make sure you attend the whale songs classes! Keep an eye on the water, you even might see a minke whale or a group of belugas…
If you look out carefully, you might even see a beluga swimming in front of the CIMM in the River.
Visit length: 1 hour… and more!
The exhibition is in French, and there is an English booklet to access the panels. Our naturalists speak English.
The CIMM and its activities are accessible to people with reduced mobility (Kéroul accreditation).

Activities
Whale-watching: From the rocks around the CIMM, observe the belugas, minke whales and seals that enter the Saguenay. Free activity, open to all.
Marine Mammal Emergencies, the presentation (back in 2021): everyday, around 15h00, in the exhibition room. A person working at the Quebec Marine Mammals Emergencies Network will come to talk to you about the current cases and what the cases tell us about whales and seals in the St. Lawrence.
The researchers coming back from sea : every day, when the research teams come back from the field, in the exhibition room. Get the latest whale news and gain an insight into scientific research by researchers upon their return from the field.
Jardin de la Grève : every day, at your own pace. In front of the CIMM, the Jardin de la Grève is an area of relaxation, contemplation and entertainment. It contains 5,500 plants typical of the North Shore and shelters the sculptures of five life-size belugas. Interpretive panels provide information about the whales of the St. Lawrence and the garden.
