Our Recommendations: If time permits take one of the guided park tours (extra charges) which take place outside the museum on the beach itself and among local remains of the defensive Atlantic wall.

For the Children: This visit is particularly appropriate for children who can follow two fictional characters, Peter and Madeleine in a discovery of Canada from 1930’s to the present day.
