Day Trips

Excited about getting out on the river for a beautiful day of paddling? We will take care of everything! Beginner friendly, all equipment included, certified guides, amazing food, an unforgettable 1000 Islands experience.

Day Trips are designed with beginners and families in mind. We depart daily form our Gananoque waterfront location at 110 Kate St.

Each day trip begins with a complete ‘kayaking 101′ lesson from our professional guides. You will quickly gain the confidence for a relaxing day among the islands. Our boats are stable and comfortable and our certified staff will always be close to lend a helping hand if needed.

The highlight of the day may very well be the gourmet Island Lunch. What can we say? The food is fantastic! 1000 Islands Kayaking is proud to support the Local Flavours program and build a buffet that represents the best ingredients from local farms. We strive to feature local organic food from within 100 miles of our location and can’t wait for you to savour our region’s finest foods.

Relax and wander on a National Park Island while your guide prepares your feast. There are opportunities for swimming, hiking, photography, bird watching, or just laying in the sun.

This leisurely day tour winds through the most biologically diverse region of Canada. The Frontenac Arch Biosphere Reserve is a member if the UNESCO world network of biosphere reserves and kayaking gets you up close to the amazing wildlife and ecosystems. The ancient granite mountain range that forms the 1000 Islands is the perfect place to lose yourself and escape for a weekend. We look forward to getting out on the river!
