🏷️ About the tagging program:
Motorized and trailered boats must be inspected and tagged by Parks Canada staff. Boats are locked to their trailer with a tag each time they leave the water and unlocked before launching again, helping ensure they remain free of aquatic invasive species.

⏱ Plan ahead: inspections at Boat Cove in Wasagaming run daily from 8:30 am to 8:30 pm, with possible wait times during peak periods.

Inspection station opens May 14, 2026
