From peaceful paddles to full-day boating adventures, explore Prince Edward County by kayak, canoe, sailboat, or motorboat. Sail between harbours, dock downtown for dinner, or set out for the best views of The County from the water.
Navigate serene routes across East Lake, West Lake, Lake on the Mountain, and Black River — perfect for paddleboarding, kayaking, or simply slowing down and taking it all in.
