Tourisme Côte-Nord strengthens the regional funding ecosystem by helping tourism businesses, organizations, and communities access support for projects that develop and structure the Côte-Nord tourism offer. Through EPRTNT and related programs delivered with Quebec’s tourism ministry, it supports categories such as attractions, activities, equipment, accommodation, festivals and events, digital development, advisory services, and destination structuring. This matters because regional tourism development requires coordinated investment across many small operators and community partners, not only one large project. Tourisme Côte-Nord helps translate provincial tourism priorities into locally relevant project funding, while also reinforcing destination promotion and sustainable regional growth. Its role is to make funding navigable for tourism stakeholders and to ensure investments strengthen the region’s identity, visitor experience, and economic resilience.
