Review:
One of the most naturally beautiful sites in Wisconsin, the Apostle Islands are a chain of 21 islands scattered across Lake Superior. Madeline Island is the only inhabited island and therefore the only one with restaurants and other amenities, but the rest of the islands offer ample opportunities for hiking, picnicking, birdwatching, and exploring lighthouses. Some of the islands can be reached by joining a cruise, but if you'd rather explore at your own pace, you can charter a boat or rent a sea kayak to explore the spectacular sea caves that dot the shore of the mainland. Madeline Island Ferry offers convenient access to Madeline Island.
