SENOBE AQUATIC CLUB ... Home of Great Paddlers

Senobe is a family-oriented club tucked into a private hillside at the west end of Lake Banook between our sister clubs Banook and MicMac. We pride ourselves on a wide range of paddling and aquatic activities for all ages. As one of three clubs on Lake Banook we host many paddling events on the lake each year.

Senobe Aquatic Club was officially incorporated on June 2, 1965 on Lake Banook in Dartmouth. The name Senobe is Mi'qmak and means "winged paddle". Senobe is a family-oriented club and a great place to meet new people and learn about paddling.
