Made It Apostle Islands Lake Superior
« on: September 07, 2017, 01:57:56 PM »
We just returned from a fantastic trip to the Apostle Islands, https://www.nps.gov/apis/index.htm

Highly recommended, a beautiful National Lakeshore.  We were on the water for 10 days.

If you go, use Little Sand Bay as the launch point.  Overnight parking is free and the facilities are excellent.

We picked up a used tandem kayak and had a ball kayaking in the sea caves, especially around Devil's Island.

That looks like it was a great trip.

I really like her nestled in the rocks.

Thanks!

That's not our boat in the cave, but a 25' Parker that was a charter.
