Vé di động
Washington Island, with its rich maritime history and Scandinavian heritage, is a perfect escape from the mainland bustle. On this self-guided driving tour, you’ll explore a place where shipwrecks shaped the community, and where ”island time“ means slowing down to appreciate Washington’s natural beauty, historical sites, and its unique character.
The tour starts at the Washington Island Welcome Coffee Pot. You’ll wind through rustic roads, past historic buildings, pristine beaches, and peaceful nature preserves. The route includes stops at quaint village shops, Jackson Harbor, and secluded spots like Little Lake with its hand-built museum.
You’ll learn about the Danish, Norwegian, and Icelandic immigrants who shaped the island’s culture, and hear fascinating stories about the ferries that have connected this remote community to the mainland for generations. You’ll also hear about the surprising connection between West Harbor and the Underground Railroad.

4.00At first, it was a little hard to figure out where I was and how to get things going. But once we did, the tour went through the whole entire island as expected. And was very helpful with the history and directions.
Fabulous!

5.00The audio was really easy to follow, if on our own we would not have had such an in-depth tour. A lot of history of the island was given. We definitely enjoyed it. It was nice to go at our own pace.
Be sure to download tour...

2.00Be sure to download tour using WiFi. Cell service is spotty and we weren’t able to hear all the information. There was a detour and after that we lost the rest of the tour. Thank goodness we had a paper map!
