Other creatures you may see include butterflies, numerous fish species, mussels, white-tailed deer and even the occasional black bear.

What should I wear?

The weather in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula can change at any moment. We recommend our guests wear rain gear on our kayaking tours if they don’t want to get wet.
