Being on the water is one of the best ways to spend your days exploring our local waterways in the Kenora area. Get some exercise and fresh air on a kayak, canoe or stand-up paddle board.
Canoeing
Canoeing has been around for ages and there is a reason for it! This mode of transportation allows you to spend time with a group of people and simply enjoy the area's amazing wildlife and scenery.

Kayaking
Want to enjoy the lake in a more environmentally friendly way? It doesn't matter if you are an experienced kayaker or have never even held a paddle; lessons are available for people of all skill levels. You can rent and explore the lake on your own or have a guide take you out to some of the most incredible locations!
Stand-up paddle boarding
The popularity of the modern sport of SUP'ing has its origin in the Hawaiian Islands. In the early 1960s, the Beach Boys of Waikiki would stand on their long boards, and paddle to the distant outside reef break using outrigger paddles. Another reason for the rise in popularity of stand-up paddle boarding is that, unlike surfing, paddle boarding is very easy to learn. Within one hour you can become very comfortable in the water and on your board. The Canadian Coast Guard has implemented rules that require SUP'ers to have a PFD with them at all times.
