As summer arrives, Quebec City reveals its most beautiful side, where historic neighbourhoods meet scenic parks and breathtaking views of the St. Lawrence River. June is the perfect month to get outside and enjoy the city's natural beauty.
On June 5, Samuel-De Champlain Beach officially opens for the season, offering a relaxing riverside escape just minutes from downtown Quebec City. Later in the month, the opening of Oasis Port of Quebec marks the return of one of the city's favourite waterfront destinations, where visitors can enjoy stunning river views and a vibrant summer atmosphere.
Active travellers will also appreciate the Staircase Challenge on June 20, an event that highlights Quebec City's iconic stairways while rewarding participants with spectacular views of Old Quebec, the river and surrounding neighbourhoods.
Whether you prefer relaxing by the water, exploring scenic viewpoints or enjoying outdoor activities, these experiences are among the best things to do in Quebec City during the summer season.
