Tour Highlights
This tour captures the essence of Door County with a shipwreck, ancient pictographs, tall bluffs, geology and a wild past brought to life with a local guide.
Imagine cruising silently across the teal blue waters of Lake Michigan in your own sea kayak, leaving all your worries and cares on the shoreline behind you, the sun warming your back and the crisp, Great Lakes air carrying the faint scent of cedar and freshwater mist. Beneath you, the haunting outline of the 1800s Schooner Fleetwing emerges, a shipwreck, steeped in lore and Great Lakes maritime history. As you paddle out further on Garrett Bay you'll get a closer look at unique geology of Door County as its tallest bluff, Deaths Door Bluff, rises dramatically before you. As you explore this legendary stretch of water, breathtaking views of Washington Island, Plum Island, and Gills Rock will unfold before your eyes, each moment a perfect snapshot of the beauty of the Great Lakes.
