Introduction to the cruise

In service on the Saint-Augustin River, the AVC L'Esprit-de-Pakuashipi hovercraft evokes a lucky name supposed to protect passengers during their crossings between the village of Saint-Augustin and the airport located near the Innu community of Pakua Shipi, whose name means “dry river”. This hovercraft, the only one of its kind in Canada, was built specifically for the needs of the ferry. It can circulate on water, ice or dry land.
