42. Gaspé Peninsula, Québec: Canada’s Coastal Secret

Tucked away in eastern Québec, the Gaspé Peninsula is an Atlantic escape few outside Canada know. Expect dramatic cliffs, moose-dotted forests, and the iconic Percé Rock rising from the sea. Hike Forillon National Park’s coastal trails, watch whales breach near Bonaventure Island, and sleep in cozy auberges where locals speak French and the fog tells stories. Quiet, raw, unforgettable.
