What you can expect

Depart from Ellison Bay and head to the end of the Door County peninsula, where you can take in panoramic views of the Niagara Escarpment and the islands in Death's Door Passage. From there, head to Plum Island and Pilot Island to see several lighthouses and light beacons up close, originally built in the 1800s.

Admire the bird population on Pilot Island, then stop by the old Lifesaving Station on Plum Island. Drift over the shipwrecks of the Grapeshot and Fleetwing, both wood schooners that sank in the 1800s. Lean over the side of the boat and see these wrecks in just 5 feet of water.

Learn about the history of Death’s Door Passage and why this area is one of the most interesting places to visit in Door County.
