Unless you have your own boat access, you will take two boats to get there. The first is from the tip of the Door County peninsula to Washington Island, and the second is from Washington Island to Rock Island. Now, you may take your vehicle to Washington Island, but Rock Island is pedestrian traffic only. That is because there is nothing on it....it's uninhabited forest save for birds and some ground dwelling animals, like squirrels and chipmunks. You may hike around the island (it's large, but not huge, it doesn't take all day), and primitive camp. There are a few buildings you can visit and some you can even go in. Food and beverage is allowed, but you must bring it with you, and take all trash with you when you leave. Make sure to get back to the dock at one of the scheduled departure times, especially if you need to make the ferry back to the mainland. If you miss the last boat on either island, you're stuck until the following day. 6/2025

We had such a blast on our tour, Deaths Door Lighthouses Cruise w/ 30 Minute Stop on Plum Island…read more Bunny was our tour guide and she was informative and lots of fun. Jim was our captain and he was excellent at navigating the choppy water and giving us a smooth, dry ride. It was so much fun exploring Plum Island! We loved it. Beautiful in pictures, but more beautiful in person. We really enjoyed our tour and would recommend it! I wouldn't recommend the Death's Door Cruise if you get seasick, though, because Lake Michigan gets pretty choppy and changes rapidly. Stick to an inland cruise instead, if you are prone to getting seasick. Our daughter was able to drive the boat for a while and she loved it. She was the only kid on the tour and still enjoyed every minute of it!

We figured, let's do it in style! It was just us 2. We had a blast. No off roading of course and it only goes to 30 mph but what a cool way to check out Washington Island. We ended up with a four seater. We arrived early to our 11 AM reservation and they were kind enough to have us out 15 min early for our 2 hour rental! Sweet! They provided a map for a suggested route and we decided to follow it for the most part. All the roads are so rustic during October so you really can't go wrong and if you get lost, good thing is the island is only 36 square miles in diameter! You won't be lost for long. The customer service was friendly, informative and gave out great recommendations. They were prompt and our ride was clean/well maintained! I would use them again for sure if I come back to the island. Once you get off ferry, it straight ahead on the left- very easy to find. You could even walk there from the ferry if you aren't bringing your own vehicle on the island. They have a phone number to call and reserve your choice of "adventure" or they have a website.

We booked the shortest cruise of the day because we couldn't predict the tolerance level of our children. We got to see several of the offshore islands and the Eagle Bluff Lighthouse. The cost was very reasonable, especially with a mix of ages: $29 for adults, seniors $27, and only five bucks for children under 12! That was a really nice surprise. As it happened, we could have done a longer tour because everyone loved it. Each row of seats has a laminated map and a pair of binoculars, which are very handy. The boat was comfortable and they thought of pretty much everything.

First, it was FUN! Beyond the fun it was informative. We had no idea of the historical significance of Manitowoc in terms of ship building and the war effort during WW I and WW II . This could easily be expanded to 3 hours by extending the ride along the waterfront all the way to Two Rivers, incorporating an optional stop at the bright pink ice cream shop! We did ride our bikes to Two Rivers and back. The Mariner's Trail is a lovely path this tour takes. Makes this excursion not just fun, but scenically beautiful as well. We highly recommend doing the Segway tour with Segway the Door.
