Summer in the Upper Peninsula - Lots of things to do and see

Memorial Day to Labor Day conveniently mark the heart of summer, with warm weather lingering into September. All warm weather attractions and accommodations await you with open doors and welcoming smiles.

When days turn warm and nights are balmy, U.P. folks bring out their summer toys. Please join us. Either bring along your boat, fishing gear, golf bag, and camping equipment, or contact one of our outfitters.

White sails mark the waters, along with kayaks, canoes, and fishing craft, all the way from sleek charters to paddle boats. Great Lakes charter captains hope for strikes of whitefish and salmon. Fishermen cast for pike and perch in inland lakes. Others try their luck for trout in rippling streams.

Water-related attractions include maritime museums, Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum, five underwater diving preserves, a glass-bottom tour boat, and tours through the internationally-known Soo Locks at Sault Ste. Marie. Ocean-going freighters flying flags from many nations add a sense of drama as they ply the waters up and down the Great Lakes.
