Port-Saint-François is a spot on the south shore of Lac Saint-Pierre, near Nicolet, in the Centre-du-Québec region. This area offers direct access to the largest widening of the St. Lawrence River (UNESCO Biosphere Reserve).
The spot benefits from the considerable fetch of Lac Saint-Pierre, particularly with north and northwest winds. The beaches and shores of Port-Saint-François allow easy launching. The very shallow water makes the spot relatively safe. Season from June to October.
Fresh water from the St. Lawrence River. Temperature of 20-24°C in summer. Sandy to muddy bottom, very shallow over great distances. Short chop characteristic of Lac Saint-Pierre. Weak current along the south shore. Vast areas of shallows — navigate with caution.
Intermediate
Open all year round
Shallows everywhere — risk of bottom contact. Marshy areas on the periphery. Commercial shipping channel — do not cross. UNESCO Biosphere Reserve — protected areas to respect (bird nesting). Frequent summer thunderstorms.
