What visitors say
Dépôt Plein Air is a Montréal outdoor shop that one customer of about 30 years calls an institution. It sells kayaks, canoes and paddleboards alongside tents, sleeping bags, backpacks, camping stoves, snowshoes and outdoor clothing.
Kayak buyers are especially happy. Reviewers describe a strong selection, including fishing kayaks, at prices they found better than the big chains. One shopper noted the store doesn't carry a huge inventory, but what it has is well priced and backed by good service.
Camping gear draws repeat customers too. A couple who lost a dining tent to ocean winds in Newfoundland stopped in to replace it with the same model, and said an earlier order had shipped free and arrived quickly. Others pick up warm-weather camping gear in summer and find jackets on sale in winter.
The rating is very high, with only a small share of low scores. Selection in any one line may be limited, so call ahead if you're after a specific model.
