Location

The "Spirit of Ontario" (nicknamed "The Cat") fast ferry runs between Rochester and Toronto. It is a great way to get from Toronto to the waterfalls of Rochester and the Finger Lakes of New York.

Access

Ticket required. See Rochester Fast Ferry for information on fares and schedules.

Details

This is not a waterfall. However, the flow of water through the jet turbines of The Cat is pretty impressive by waterfall standards -- 2,000 cubic feet per second at maximum speed.

The ferry runs twice per day in each direction, starting from Rochester. The trip is fast (2-1/2 hours) and verrry comfortable.
