martinimadam Posted August 18, 2009 #1 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Having a hard time finding much on this port. Will be there mid-October on a HAL cruise. The only picture I could find of the pier looks pretty dreary. Anyone know if they have an actual terminal? How far is the town from the dock? If far, any chance of taxis? Ideas of things to do there? Thanks for any info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTJ Posted August 19, 2009 #2 Share Posted August 19, 2009 I've been to Baie-Comeau a few times, but only because it is from where the ferry to Matane departs. I assume that the vessel will dock at the ferry terminal, in which case there is a real ferry terminal at which to alight. See http://www.traversiers.gouv.qc.ca/en/photo_album/38/matanebaie-comeaugodbout.html. It is some distance into the city, perhaps 2 km into the city centre. There is public transportation, but it stops on the main road, not at the ferry terminal, and it only operates once hourly, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. (no Sunday service). Download the route map and timetable here: http://www.ville.baie-comeau.qc.ca/vivre/environnement/transport_commun/. I've never been there to do a tourist visit, and I don't recall there being much of interest, but you can probably get some ideas by looking at the tourist site here: http://www.ville.baie-comeau.qc.ca/en/visiting/.
