The Island QueenThe world-famous 1000 Islands begin in Kingston and span the St. Lawrence River for miles. Our three hour Heart of the Islands Cruise begins with a view of Kingston’s UNESCO World Heritage designated sites and then winds its way through the small cottage islands of the admiralty Islands. You’ll see Polaris Island, Napoleon’s Hat, Wanderer’s Channel, and Bateau Channel along with historic and opulent mansions.
