4.7 Beauport
Beauport is a northeastern suburb of Quebec City. Manufacturers include paint, construction materials, printers, and hospital supplies. Food transportation is important to the economy. Attractions include Parc de la Chute-Montmorency (Montmorency Falls Park), which contains a fortification built in 1759 by James Wolfe and Manoir Montmorency, the home from 1791 to 1794 of Prince Edward, Duke of Kent and Strathearn.
The city's historic district contains many interesting churches and homes, including Bélanger-Girardin House, a National Historic Site of Canada where visitors can learn about Beauport's heritage. Annual events include the spring arts festival Salon de Mai and the summer Festival Folklorique des enfants du monde, a multicultural and international children's folklore festival.

The sprawling borough of Beauport is known for the Baie de Beauport, a sandy swimming beach along the St. Lawrence River with outdoor games and a bar. At the mouth of the Montmorency River lies thundering Montmorency Falls, offering views from a suspension bridge and a zipline. Amid residential streets, there are neighbourhood parks, family-friendly Québécois restaurants, and open-air shopping centres.

With a sandy beach and great recreational facilities a 5-minute drive from downtown Québec City, Beauport Bay is the perfect place to have fun outdoors on a sunny summer day. A number of nautical activities may be practised at this site, which is located along the St. Lawrence River. It is possible to go swimming in the bay when conditions permit. The play areas, refreshing water jets and pump track trail are very popular with families. During the concerts held here on the occasional summer evening, the site becomes an enormous outdoor dance floor. Beauport Bay is also accessible from the Corridor du Littoral bike path.
Montmorency Falls Park
Parc de la Chute-Montmorency
5300 Bd Sainte-Anne, Québec, QC G1C 0M3
Parc de la Chute-Montmorency is a spectacular, year-round historical site located 15 minutes from Old Quebec, featuring an 83-meter (272 ft) waterfall—30 meters higher than Niagara Falls. Visitors can explore via a suspension bridge, cable car, or 487-step panoramic staircase.
Some activities you can enjoy at the park include hiking, enjoying the waterfall views, biking, zip lining over the waterfall, via ferrata, picnic, theatre, snow hiking, ice climbing, taking children to the playground, and even dining at a nice restaurant. There is something for people of all ages and interests to enjoy.
The park just installed a brand new dual zip line that basically goes right over the falls and allows you to get a unique view of the Montmorency Falls. It is such an invigorating and beautiful experience to be that high, up close and personal with the falls.
