The 1000 Islands region constitute an archipelago of 1,864 gorgeous islands along the Canada-U.S. border in the Saint Lawrence River. The islands stretch for about 80KM (~50 miles) downstream from Kingston, Ontario. The Canadian islands are in the province of Ontario, the U.S. islands in the state of New York. Canada is home to the majority of islands with just over two-thirds in Ontario. The 1,864 islands range in size from over 100 square kilometers (~40 square miles) to smaller islands occupied by a single residence, or even uninhabited outcroppings of rocks that are only home to migratory waterfowl. To count as one of the 1000 Islands, emergent land within the river channel must have at least one square foot (0.093 m2) of land above water level year-round, and support at least two living trees.
