Set along the scenic Ottawa River, Port of Call Marina offers a straightforward yet exceptional way to get out on the water and fish your heart out. Known for its clear views and lively aquatic life, the river is a favorite among local anglers and visitors alike. Renting a 14' aluminum fishing boat equipped with a 9.9 Hp motor allows you to tap into the river’s hidden spots without the need for advanced boat skills, making it accessible for nearly all adventure levels. The marina’s well-maintained fleet ensures safety and ease, but remember to bring your own lifejackets, especially for children.
Ottawa River’s broad surface features a combination of rocky shoals and quiet coves, perfect for fishing, relaxed cruising, or just soaking in the view. As you drift past lush riverbanks and occasional wildlife—perhaps a ruby-throated hummingbird or a family of playful otters—you'll notice the unique geology of the area: limestone formations and ancient riverbed sediments that tell stories of geological change over millennia.
Whether you're a seasoned angler or a family seeking a simple day by the water, this rental destination provides a close-up experience with nature, without the crowds. The marina’s strategic location makes it a perfect starting point for a day on the river, offering easy access to fishing hotspots and quiet stretches for swimming or picnicking. It’s also a gateway to discovering the history of the Ottawa River, once a vital trade route for Indigenous peoples and early explorers, now a peaceful spot for outdoor recreation.
With knowledgeable staff and streamlined rental procedures, Port of Call Marina offers everything needed for a hassle-free day. Each boat is ready for your adventure—just pack some snacks, your fishing gear, and bring your sense of discovery. This spot embodies the raw, unpretentious charm that makes the Ottawa River a top destination for water-based adventures.
