Service Description

Carved by Water: St.Mary's River The St. Mary's River has been shaping this landscape for thousands of years. Flowing between Lake Superior and Lake Huron, its waters have carved rocky shorelines, created sheltered channels, and provided a route for wildlife, Indigenous Peoples, voyageurs, and modern explorers alike. Launching from the accessible dock at Bellevue Marina, this guided three-hour canoe adventure follows the river toward Topsail Island. Along the way, you'll paddle waters surrounded by urban oasis and expansive views that make this one of the most scenic stretches of the St. Mary's River. As we travel, your guide will share stories about the river's natural history, ecology, and the role it has played in shaping the region. Keep an eye out for soaring eagles, turtles basking in the sun, and the variety of birds that call this waterway home. This is a relaxed paddle designed to slow the pace and immerse you in a landscape where nature and history flow together.
