Fishing & Boating<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>
\n

The St. Lawrence River and Lake Ontario are famous for bass, northern pike and muskellunge as well as brown trout and salmon. Guided fishing trips are a tradition in these waters. Novice anglers, or those just wishing to boost their chance of success, hire these experts to take them out onto the water for a successful day. The 1000 Islands includes the eastern edge of Lake Ontario and is known for trophy-sized catches of salmon, trout, walleye and bass. And don\u2019t forget about muskies! These monsters top out at more than 60 inches long and are to be pursued only by the most experienced of anglers or with a guide. In 2019, Bassmaster Magazine named the St. Lawrence River the top bass fishing destination in the nation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boating paradise<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The diversity of this waterway has made the 1000 Islands among the most popular places to go boating in North America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This destination-for-everyone includes the wide-open waters of northeastern Lake Ontario and the meandering channels and coves of the St. Lawrence River. Every type of boater is found here, ranging from sailors to speedsters to cruisers.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dotted by more than 1,800 islands, the St. Lawrence River is one of the most picturesque places to throw a wake. The river has safely marked channels and innumerable alternatives including narrow passageways, peaceful coves and popular anchorages. Public island parks on both sides of the border are among the most popular places to throw anchor and float with friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

No kids? No problem! Winter is the perfect time to sneak off to the tasting rooms and lounges stocked with wines, brews and spirits made from right here in the 1000 Islands.

More than a dozen pioneering winemakers, brewers and distillers have harnessed those ingredients into award-winning craft beverages giving new and old visitors alike a reason to visit the 1000 Islands. Craft beverage producers are just now tapping the amazing potential for what this land of woods and water can create. Come enjoy a taste of the 1000 Islands and find out what makes this region so \u201cmagical.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 1000 Islands is a place of many traditions, including the Shore Dinner. Guiding 1000 Islands visitors to a successful day of fishing is a tradition that stretches back more than a century. The first fishing guides rowed wealthy clients to fishing hotspots along the water and would later treat them to a special island meal known as the Shore Dinner. Today\u2019s fishing guides are equipped with more modern fishing equipment but still serve the traditional Shore Dinner and the recipe is almost unchanged in more than 100 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
