Boating and Docks
The Tay Canal offers scenic boating to Perth, connecting the town to the Rideau Lakes system with convenient docks for boaters during the summer months. To assist in your travels, Friends of the Tay have compiled essential information on bridge heights, canal depths, and more in their pamphlet Navigating the Tay Canal.
