Description

  • Discover the Best-Kept Secret of the Apostle Islands: The Houghton Point Sea Cave Tour

Join our most reliable and family-friendly kayak tour, where pristine sea caves and tranquil waters create the ultimate paddling experience.

Unlike tours at Meyers Beach or Roman’s Point—where cancellations due to rough conditions are frequent—this adventure offers a dependable and exhilarating way to explore Lake Superior’s natural wonders.

While the sea caves here may be more modest than those in other locations, this tour takes you into the shallowest, warmest, and most sheltered waters of the Apostle Islands: Chequamegon Bay. The calm conditions make it perfect for families, beginners, and even seasoned paddlers looking for a scenic, worry-free outing.

Why Choose This Tour?

✅ Perfect for Families – Designed for kids ages 5 and up, this tour offers a safe, fun, and accessible experience.
✅ Great for All Skill Levels – While beginner-friendly, the tour still provides a rewarding challenge for experienced paddlers.
✅ Minimal Cancellations – In 2023, Meyers Beach had a staggering 50% cancellation rate, while Houghton Point tours had only a 10% cancellation rate.
✅ Warmest Waters in Lake Superior – Enjoy a refreshing swim without the need for a wetsuit.
✅ Breathtaking Scenery – Paddle through intricate sea caves, explore secluded cliffs, and take in the beauty of the East side of the Bayfield Peninsula.
✅ Sheltered from Wind & Waves – Unlike tours on the West side (Meyers Beach, Roman’s Point, and Sand Island), this area remains calm even when other locations experience rough waters.

For those craving a longer journey, Roman’s Point offers a more demanding challenge beyond the four-mile mark.

Whether you’re a first-time paddler or an experienced kayaker, this tour delivers an unforgettable adventure in one of Lake Superior’s most stunning yet overlooked destinations.
