It has been the unanimous opinion of the last 3 seasons that this tour was a “must do”!
During a leisurely paddle of 1.5 hours, you may encounter blue heron, snapping turtles, American bald eagles, corrmorants, egrets, kingfishers, beavers, deer, various falcons, and many different fish to name a few…..not to mention spotting jumpers from nearby Niagara Skydive Centre (wildlife of a whole different sort)
Who knows, you might even spot “Muddy” the World Famous Grand River Mudcat !
A nesting pair of American Bald Eagles has recently moved into the area.
Paddle directly from Grand River Kayak, under a bridge and around the “Grand Island Bar-B-Q” into an expansive wetland.
This tour departs and returns to Grand River Kayak. The current in the Lower Grand River is very slow, and it is a simple matter to paddle both ways…no need for a shuttle!
