Sainte-Anne-des-Monts stretches along the Saint Lawrence shoreline with the Chic-Choc Mountains rising just inland, offering dramatic scenery and day-to-day convenience in equal measure. Residents prize easy access to wild spaces—Parc national de la Gaspésie’s peaks and caribou habitat are a quick drive via Route 299, with trails, backcountry skiing, and interpretive programs run by Sépaq at the park’s official site. Down by the wharf, families gravitate to Exploramer, a renowned science museum and aquarium celebrating the rich marine life of the Gulf.
Community amenities are solid for a town its size. Healthcare is anchored by services from the CISSS de la Gaspésie, and local schools, including École Gabriel-Le Courtois, support students from kindergarten through secondary. For postsecondary pathways, the Cégep de Matane’s study centre in town connects learners with programs in technology and applied arts through the Cégep de Matane. Everyday life moves at a comfortable pace, with grocers, cafés, and outfitters clustered near the waterfront, and weekend adventures ranging from salmon fishing on the Sainte-Anne River to snowshoeing in the highlands.
Commuters and road-trippers appreciate the coastal sweep of Route 132, with quick connections to Cap-Chat, Matane, and farther along the peninsula to Gaspé. As the service hub of La Haute-Gaspésie, housing runs from classic seaside homes to newer builds with mountain views.
