The St. Lawrence Seaway is the common name for a system of canals that permits ocean-going vessels to travel from the Atlantic Ocean to the Great Lakes, as far as Lake Superior.

Within the US, the Erie Canal was opened in 1825 as a connection between the Atlantic and the Great Lakes. It was supplanted by the New York State Barge Canal in 1918, but segments are still in use today.
