We don't think of ourselves as being in the sales business, as much as we're in the customer service business. What's the difference, you might ask? A salesperson will try to sell you whatever he or she thinks you will buy. We will listen carefully to your wants and needs, and help you choose the best kayak, canoe, or SUP board for you! Not based on sales quotas or inventory overstocks, or "model of the moment" motivations. We sell quality products at fair prices. We know that there are less expensive products out there at the "big box" retailers, and there are other "dealers" selling lower quality boats. We encourage you to do your homework - visit our competitors first, and then come and see us. Our years of paddling experience and passion for the sport, combined with some of the best brands in the industry, will guide you through the process of making sure you make the right purchase for, the first time! 
Located strategically on the banks of the Heritage Grand River, our store is stocked with over 60 models of kayaks, canoes and stand-up paddleboards. FREE test paddling every day!
You will find sea kayaks, fishing kayaks, tandem kayaks, canoes, SUP's, recreational and day touring kayaks to suit every need, budget, and skill level from some of the best names in paddlesports; Necky Kayaks, Old Town Canoe & Kayak, Blu Wave SUP, Current Designs, Hurricane Kayaks, Liquid Logic, Ocean Kayak, Werner Paddles, Kokatat, North Water, NRS, Carlisle Paddles, Extrasport PFD's and many more.

My name is Tanya Sullivan I am a 44 year old female. I am co-owner of Grand River Kayak.I have breast cancer. Did you know that 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime? That’s a scary statistic. I was diagnosed in March 2016 and I am currently undergoing treatment at Hamilton’s Juravinski Cancer Center. I started chemotherapy at the beginning of May, and will need surgery and radiation as well.This diagnosis will greatly affect the nature of our business this season. You may or may not see me around. When you do see me, I will look different, and may interact differently, too. But I am still me. Just tired. Feel free to say...
You don't have to be heading out to the open sea in your kayak to need to understand your responsibilities under the law. Ignorance is not an alibi, and anyone who sells boats of any kind should educate their customers about the additional gear that they MUST buy when purchasing a kayak or any other watercraft. Here's the scenario: You're out kayaking on Lake Ontario, enjoying a relaxing day paddling along the shoreline. As you and your partner chat about the weather, an OPP patrol boat approaches and the officer asks you to produce your mandatory safety gear...Do you know what you need, where it is, and how it works? The fine in Ontario for not carrying the appropriate safety...

THE AGE OF THE ARMCHAIR PADDLER There once was a time, not so long ago, that if you were a “kayaker” it meant one of two things – you were either a whitewater kayaker, or a sea kayaker. Either pursuit was considered rather serious and required a certain level of skill to be considered a safe and competent paddler. Paddling schools, organizations like the ACA, Paddle Canada, and the BCU became the place to go for paddling instruction. Focus was as much about safety and good planning as it was on paddling techniques. Instructors were respected for their knowledge, and their ability to pass on that knowledge to eager students. Fast forward to present day. Paddlesports manufacturers have spent the...
