Frontenac Islands offers an island lifestyle with quick connections to urban amenities, thanks to year-round ferries to Kingston and routes toward Gananoque. Centered on Wolfe, Howe, and Simcoe islands, the township blends wide-water views, pastoral roads perfect for cycling, and harbors alive with boating and fishing. Residents tap into the services of Frontenac, while the storied shores of Leeds and Grenville lie just across the channel.
Daily life revolves around the water. The free Wolfe Island Ferry makes commuting and weekend outings simple, while Howe Island’s crossings keep errands and school runs practical in every season. Big Sandy Bay’s dunes and long beach are a local favorite for hiking, birding, and quiet shoreline picnics, and the broader Thousand Islands region supplies endless paddling routes, sailing, and sunset cruises.
Families appreciate the close-knit feel and accessible education. Area schools are guided by the Limestone District School Board, with secondary and specialized options a short ferry ride away in Kingston and Catholic alternatives through the Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic District School Board. Municipal updates, permits, and island-specific services are easy to track through the Township of Frontenac Islands.
Whether you’re dreaming of a year-round home with space to breathe or a dockside retreat to share with friends, the islands deliver a rare mix of calm and connectivity. When you’re ready to buy or sell, Agent Pronto can connect you with a top local real estate pro to guide every step.
