A major Philly landmark, this picturesque strip of rowing clubs is made up of mock Tudor and Victorian boathouses from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Check the website for the racing schedule between each of the mainly university clubs.

The most famous race is the Dad Vail (ww.dadvail.org) in mid-May.
