Saint-Pascal (French pronunciation: [sɛ̃ paskal]) is a city in Kamouraska Regional County Municipality in the Bas-Saint-Laurent region of Quebec. It has a population of 3,530. It is the second biggest city in the RCM, after La Pocatière. The city is crossed by the Kamouraska River. It's also the county seat of the Kamouraska RCM.

Saint-Pascal was named in honour of Paschal Taché, seigneur of Kamouraska. The original spelling of the municipality, based on the Latin Paschalis, was given in honour of Étienne-Paschal Taché, a notary and militia lieutenant-colonel. In November 1813, he became co-seigneur of Kamouraska with his father, Paschal-Jacques. On his father's death, he assumed sole ownership of the seigneury.
