From the quiet waters of the canal to the shores of
Lake Ontario, the region is a destination for boaters, fisherman, and vacationers.
Oswego's award-winning Harborfest boasts national performers, spectacular fireworks, and days of fun for thousands of visitors each July.
 
 
Boating Rivers and streams within the Corridor are well suited for motorized vessels, as well as kayaks, canoes, and other small non-motorized boats.
 
Fishing Rivers provide important habitat for the state's fisheries, drawing many anglers, especially during salmon runs on the Oswego and Genessee Rivers. Trout, walleye, and steelhead are found in smaller rivers and streams.
