The best time to go to Saint-Joseph-De-La-Rive is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is warm and all attractions are fully operational.During this period, you'll experience pleasant temperatures, great for exploring the village and its surroundings. The ferry service to L'Isle-aux-Coudres runs frequently, and the various craft shops, museums, and local eateries are open daily. This is also when the St. Lawrence River is at its most inviting for activities like kayaking or simply enjoying the views from the shore.For those who appreciate autumn colours and a slightly quieter experience, September and early October are also excellent. The foliage along the river and in the surrounding hills transforms into a stunning display of reds, oranges, and yellows.
