Step aboard the Island Belle for a unique cocktail patio atmosphere: a floating patio on the St. Lawrence river at sunset. Must be 19+ years to participate in this activity.
Experience scenic views of Fort Henry, the Royal Military College, local islands, and Kingston’s skyline – the perfect backdrop for an evening out on the water.
Promenade on the open-air top deck, sip cocktails and VQA wines and enjoy light music on board.
Your cruise begins at the confluence of three major waterways: the Rideau Canal, the St. Lawrence River and Lake Ontario. The Island Queen winds her way along the shorelines of Point Frederick, Navy Bay, Deadman Bay and Cedar Island. From here, sail on toward the open water with views of Wolfe Island’s powerful wind turbines and the remote Garden Island in the distance. Take in views of some of Kingston’s most prominent landmarks including the Kingston Penitentiary, the Tett Centre, Gord Downie Pier and Kingston General Hospital as we make our way back into harbour.
Part of the Kingston Fortifications and a UNESCO World heritage site, seeing Fort Henry from the water is spectacular.
Soak in the sunset as you sail past the windmills of Wolfe Island.
