Paddling near Cornucopia, WI


Cornucopia sits on the south shore of Lake Superior in Bayfield County and serves as a direct gateway to the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore — one of the most celebrated sea kayaking destinations in North America. Sandstone cliffs along the Bayfield Peninsula and the surrounding archipelago have been carved into arches, vaulted chambers, and honeycombed sea caves that paddlers explore by kayak, canoe, and SUP. Bark Bay Slough, Romans Point, Sand Island, and Madeline Island are among the named destinations drawing paddlers to this stretch of the Great Lakes.
