Gananoque
Gananoque (pronounced Gan-an-ock-wee) is situated halfway between Toronto and Montreal, two hours from Ottawa and just 15 minutes from the US border. This gateway to the 1000 Islands is known as a four-season playground with as many activities to do and things to see as there are islands. Take in Gananoque’s historic walking tour, wander through the many eclectic shops, stop at one of our awardwinning restaurants or have an adventure scuba diving, sky diving, riding the local trails and more.
A variety of boat cruises from Gananoque Boat Lines whisk visitors away on a water journey full of culture, history and island splendor. The local boat lines even offer trips to the internationally famous Boldt Castle. Boat cruises are group friendly, with triple-decker boats available. Duration and departures vary throughout the season.
The Thousand Islands Playhouse opens its doors from May to November with exciting shows in both the intimate 360-seat Springer Theatre and the new, theatre-in-the-round setting of the Firehall Theatre. Combine a spectacular musical or play with the Playhouse’s location on the shores of the St. Lawrence River.
