Good news: Although it is not perfect the weather in Quebec in may is good in Montreal, Trois-Rivières, Saguenay, Granby and Sherbrooke. I allows to appreciate tours in these cities. And even why not take a little time to enjoy the hotel pool!
If you do not go to spend your time in a lounger by the pool, but, for example to go sightseeing, the cities of Baie-Saint-Paul, Montmagny, Rivière-du-Loup, Alma, Québec City, Saint-Felicien, Tadoussac, Rimouski, Chibougamau and Dolbeau-Mistassini have a just ok weather for it in may. Eventually, we advise you to avoid you get to Blanc-Sablon, Port-Cartier, Sainte-Anne-des-Monts, Gaspé (Gaspé Peninsula), Matane, Sept-Îles, Baie-Comeau, Rivière-Saint-Paul and Percé that month because the climate is rather unfavorable.
