Kagawong West Municipal Marina

unique shopping and great ice cream

Great harbour for cruising boats . We docked here many times on our North Channel adventures from Windsor Ontario. Limited dockage but well worth staying . Great staff and a nice village for exploring . For an interesting story (and expandable pics ) about a former yacht and fishing club for the rich and famous, ( John Wayne, Marilyn Monroe, Gene Autry, and even a US president)
, visit the website "Harbour Island , then and now" . We docked there when the yacht club was still furnished and intact in the late 1970's , and there is some info about it at the small museum beside the old mill in Kagawong . Harbour Island is in a bay on the south side of Clapperton Island , 15k north of Kagawong by boat .Watch out for the monster poison ivy there , if you explore the remains of the buildings .

The waterfront is under construction at the moment. The beach access has a wheelchair accessible ramp in place now and the road has been regraded and paved, with sidewalks added.
Parking is minimal. It appears that Kagawong is entering the modern age after much resistance. The main dock at the marina will be needing an upgrade next, for a finishing touch to beautify the waterfront.

We came here for ice cream because the chocolate store was too busy. Nice place with about different flavors. $2.50 baby cones and $3 single cones.

The marina accommodates small and medium sized vessels for short or long term docking. Gas and pump out available. Ice cream and some marine supplies available in season. Needs upgrading but still a safe place to dock.
