The Washington Island Beaches of Wisconsin include the Jackson Harbor Ridges, Schoolhouse Beach, Gislason Public Beach, Percy Johnson County Park, and Sand Dunes Park. The Jackson Harbor Ridges, or also known as “The Ridges,” is a State of Wisconsin Scientific Area and an excellent example of shore meadows, boreal, dune, and beach communities. There is a nature trail for walking, photography, and nature study. Percy Johnson County Park is the island’s only Door County Park and features a nice beach area for picnics with views of Hog Island. Schoolhouse Beach is one of just five similar beaches in the world.
