There's a new way to see the 1000 Islands and its spectacular landmarks. Fly 1000 Islands Helicopter Tours by Kouri's Kopters opened their heliport at 88 County Road 32 adjacent to Highway 401 in May. The new location is just outside of Gananoque in the Township of Leeds and the Thousand Islands and is minutes from the St. Lawrence River and aerial views of Boldt Castle, the Thousand Islands International Bridge, the 1000 Islands Tower, and Singer Castle, to name just a few attractions.

"We were looking for the perfect piece of land by the 401 and by an exit, and we found it," says Ewelina Sobala, who is the company's sales and marketing manager. Construction of the heliport began last fall following the purchase of the land. Kouri's Kopters had been in operation in Kingston since 2008 with a goal to locate within the United Counties of Leeds and Grenville.
