Percé

Current Location: Underway

Percé is a small town on the tip of the Gaspé Peninsula in Quebec that is known for the large sheer rock island with a arch passing through it (which gives the town its name). At low tide is it possible to wade out to the base of the rock.




At its tallest, the rock stands at 289 feet of solid limestone.
