1The Thousand Islands are a chain of islands that
straddle the U.S-Canada border in the Saint
Lawrence River as it emerges from the northeast
corner of Lake Ontario. The islands stretch for
about 50 mi (80 km) downstream from Kingston,
Ontario
The Thousand Islands
- Canadian islands are in the province of Ontario.
The U.S. islands are in the state of New York.
The islands, which number 1,865 in all, range in
size from over 100 km² (40 sq mi) to smaller
islands occupied by a single residence, to even
smaller uninhabited outcroppings of rocks that
are home to migratory waterfowl. -
The number of islands was determined using the
criteria that any island must be above water
level for 365 days per year, bigger than one
square foot (roughly 900 cm²), and support at
least one tree or shrub. The area is very
popular among vacationers, campers, and boaters,
and is often referred to as the 'fresh water
boating capital of the world.'
