Straddling the international border between the Canadian province of Ontario and the American state of New York, Niagara Falls has been a wildly popular honeymoon destination since the 18th century, but it has a lot to offer young lovers and nature lovers alike. The section of the falls accessible from the American side (the aptly named American Falls) is separated from its northern neighbor by the uninhabited Goat Island, itself accessible by two bridges carrying foot, car and train traffic. There are many activities to choose from in the area, but the main spectacle is the falls itself and the best use of one’s time is found in taking advantage of the various methods of observing this extraordinary natural phenomenon. Perhaps the most invigorating means of experiencing Niagara is via an open jet boat excursion into the watery chaos of the Niagara Whirlpool. Not for the faint of heart, open tours guarantee the prospect of getting thoroughly soaked. All participants must be older than age six, taller than 44 inches, and in good health. For the marginally meeker visitor, closed or domed jet boat tours are also available.
