Whether paddling down the meandering gorge of the Oak Orchard River or navigating the calm waters of the grand Erie Canal, you'll find good times around every bend. Our canal port villages of Albion, Holley and Medina offer docking right along side the downtown historic districts and within an easy walk to restaurants, shops and museums. If sailing is your passion, the Lake Ontario shoreline and our sheltered Oak Orchard Harbor shouldn't be missed for a moonlit cruise.

The New York State Canal Corporation recently unveiled the New York State Canalway Water Trail, a coordinated trail with boat launches, landings and campsites along the 524-mile New York State Canal System. There are more than 100 launch and landing sites currently available to both motorized and non-motorized boaters along the Canal System that are now listed on the new interactive map on the Canal Corporation’s website,  www.canals.ny.gov. [Will open in new browser window.] 

The following list includes our waterways, public access points, marinas and boating related activities in Orleans County for the Erie Canal, Oak Orchard River and Lake Ontario. Visit World Class Fishing for fishing related information. Sort our lists by clicking on any of the column headings.
