Once again this summer, Baie Sainte-Marguerite will be closed to navigation from June 21 to September 21.<\/p>\n
Since 2018, navigation has been completely prohibited in Baie Sainte-Marguerite during the summer months for all watercraft, with the exception of kayaks, canoes and recreational fishing boats under certain conditions. In the waters of the Saguenay adjacent to this bay, speeds of between five and ten knots must be maintained and stopping is prohibited.<\/p>\n
This measure is intended to reduce noise, disturbance and the risk of collisions for the belugas that frequent the area at this time of year to feed, socialize and rest. Females also care for their calves here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
