Note:The Argyle River is tidal, keep in mind the tide times, a beautiful paddle up the river especially in the fall. This location makes a good access to the ocean by just paddling under the Argyle River Bridge on the highway.There is a fair bit of current when paddling past the pillars from the old bridge.
Caution: Impassable during low tides for access
While in this area if you are looking for a good picnic spot take the Glenwood 32A exit and continue on the #3 highway towards Yarmouth, Glenwood Provincial Park (no camping). There is also access to Rickers Lake, a good size lake if you want to experience an inland paddle for a bit of variety.
