I am asked often about this trip, probably because Port Dover is such a popular tourist location. The Black Creek and Lynn River are a favourite paddle of mine in the shoulder seasons, they are relatively calm, scenic paddles. In my opinion, I much prefer to do this in the spring when the water level is up and the trees are budding. It also allows much better views of the valley. As an added bonus, it is much less busy than in the summer months when the marina traffic is quite heavy.

 

Please note the map is slightly inaccurate, there is a small dirt road 100M to the east of the marker shown. That is the launch.
