The Northern Dvina River is the lifeblood of Arkhangelsk, flowing into the White Sea. Its broad, slow-moving waters are perfect for leisurely boat trips that reveal the city's skyline and surrounding forests. The riverbanks feature several parks, such as the Petrovsky Park, with walking paths and benches. Anglers can try for salmon and other fish, while in winter, the frozen river becomes a route for ice fishing and snowmobiling.

- Scenic river cruise past the Arkhangelsk waterfront and islands
- Fishing for Atlantic salmon and whitefish in the river's clear waters
- Petrovsky Park along the bank, ideal for picnics and sunset views
