Sailing the Apostle Islands is an ideal way to experience Lake Superior’s National Lakeshore Wilderness Area. Part of the beauty of sailing from Bayfield is the sights and points of interest begin as soon as you leave the dock. The Dreamcatcher Sailing Company’s “Afternoon Sail” is a perfect introduction to the joys of sailing.
Old Rittenhouse Inn created a convenient Sailing Package for Couples that makes it easy. With your experienced captain at the helm, set sail from Bayfield city dock in the afternoon on a 2 – 2.5 hour sailing excursion among the famous Apostle Islands. Refreshments are included, and you are welcome to bring carry-ons.
To plan your Bayfield Sailing vacation, check lodging availability online and add the package, or give the Old Rittenhouse Inn front desk a call at 715-779-5111.
The Apostle Islands provide more than sheer beauty; they also break the wave action on the great lake, creating a safe harbor for ships and boats. In general, you can expect a smooth ride on most Lake Superior sailing trips among the Apostle Islands.
Enjoy this experience at your own pace: if you prefer an active experience, immerse yourself in the activity of sailing taking the lines and steering the sailboat. Or sit back and enjoy the beautiful sights and sounds of Lake Superior in summer time. There’s no better way to relax! Hear the sound of the waves lapping against the hull, the wind in the sails, the call of distant seagulls… enhancing the stunning visual spectacle of the emerald green islands.
Lake Superior is the Boss, and it tends to mirror the personality of the sky above. On a bluebird day, the lake is as incredibly, intensely blue as you could imagine. On a day of mixed clouds, the blue takes on a darker tone and on cloudy days, the water has a steely look to it. The Lake never looks quite the same way twice, but it is always beautiful.
Old Rittenhouse Inn has developed a convenient package that allows you to explore the islands on an afternoon sail with Dreamcatcher. Simply head over to our Specials and Packages Page for more information about our Lake Superior sailing experience.
