With the heat waves that typically turn July in the Eastern Townships into a boaters paradise coming as planned we've found one of the best kept secrets in the heart of Knowlton is actually not a secret! The Knowlton Marina has long been the launch site for boaters and canoeists who wish to enjoy boating on Lac Brome but the large wooden deck on the shores of Brome Lake are the perfect place to sit and relax with friends while watching the bathers in the distance and the coming and goings of the sailors of the region.Boat launching during the week is only $10 and on weekends it's $12. There is a gas bar and of course the always popular weekend Bar-B-Que and the waterfront terrace where we can sit under the shade of umbrellas and anjoy a cold beer while watching the action at the docks.
There are boat rentals too so if you're just visiting Knowlton area while on holiday in Quebec you can enjoy a fishing trip! A fishing boat equipped with a 9.9 HP motor starts at only $25 per hour and a canoe or pedalo for a quiet paddle on the lake is only $12 per hour.
