OTTAWA, ON, June 4, 2025 /CNW/ - Boating season is full throttle, and there's no better time to jump on board. Whether you're a nautical novice or a seasoned pro looking to brush up on your skills, Discover Boating Canada – the go-to resource for all things boating – shares expert tips on how to get on the water this summer and create memorable experiences with friends and family, no matter the budget.
"Boating is part of our Canadian culture – it's a powerful way to unplug from the chaos of everyday life and reconnect with what truly matters," said Marie-France MacKinnon, Executive Director of the National Marine Manufacturers Association Canada and Discover Boating Canada. "Whether it's fishing, wakeboarding or tubing, or just watching the loons pass by, being on the water is like a vacation on-demand with endless possibilities, offering Canadians a unique opportunity to recharge and experience the freedom and joy that only boating can provide."
Each year more than ten million people in Canada enjoy boating. From Victoria to Cape Spear, the Okanagan, Lake Manitoba, Georgian Bay, Thousand Islands or Halifax Harbour, Canadians from coast-to-coast-to-coast are experts at making every minute count – outdoors and on the water.

The sight and sound of water, the rhythm of waves, and the gentle rocking of the boat create a naturally calming environment that reduces stress levels and boosts your mood.
