Proudly Clean Marine Diamond Elite Certified

Our Commitment to the Rideau River

At Pirate Cove Marina, we believe that preserving the beauty of the Rideau River is just as important as maintaining the boats that travel on it. We are honored to hold the Clean Marine Diamond Elite certification, a testament to our dedication to environmental stewardship and operational excellence.

Clean Marine Certified

What Does This Mean for You?

When you choose a Clean Marine Certified marina, you are choosing a partner that has adopted strict Environmental Best Practices as a core policy.

  • Verified Excellence: Our "Diamond Elite" status is achieved through a rigorous, third-party audit covering more than 200 environmental practices, conducted by Terra Choice Environmental Services.

  • Responsible Operations: From fuel handling and waste management to bottom washing and site maintenance, our policies are guided by the Clean Marine Manual—developed in partnership with the Ontario Marine Operators Association, Environment Canada, and the Ontario Ministry of Environment.

  • A Greener Destination: Whether you are calling Pirate Cove your homeport or stopping by as a destination while cruising, you can boat with confidence, knowing we are doing everything we can to protect our lakes and rivers for future generations.
