Also boarding at Bishop Park in Wyandotte, the
DIAMOND JACK departs for our nostalgic Bob-Lo
tour. For almost 100 years thousands of people rode
the famous Steamers Columbia and Ste Claire,
ferries or their own craft, to enjoy a day of
amusements, picnics, swimming and dancing on the
canadian island of Bob-Lo. On our cruise to
Bob-Lo you’ll view the new, exclusive, island
community of waterfront mansions, now only
accessible to its residents by ferry. As we sail past,
if you look closely, the last remnants of the once
famous amusement park can still be seen.
Travel the same waters that the Bob-Lo steamers
once did. Along the way, you will pass ships,
pleasurecraft and miles of scenic coastline and
waterway. Enjoy sunny skies and sea breezes as you
cruise past the island and riverside landscapes of
Bob-Lo, Grosse Ile and Amherstburg, while
listening to historic narration and interesting
anecdote. Come cruise with us!
