While the Gaspe Peninsula isn't as well known for its indoor activities, it has a few nice ones. The La Maisonart art gallery is home to the beautiful watercolors of John Wiseman, and Parc du Bourg de Pabos information center is a wonderful place to learn about the history of Quebec, Canada. There is also a lot of shopping, particularly in the tourist heavy cities like Grand-Metis. There are lots of camping opportunities on the peninsula, and it's also full of lodges, many of which have seaside views. A visit to the Gaspe Peninsula has the potential to be something really special no matter when you go.
