Boating Details

Boating is loads of fun in Isle Royale National Park, especially since it has 400 islands within its archipelago. Because of its size, overnight boating trips are common just be sure to get your camping permit prior to starting your trip; be sure to display your permit on the boat when at anchor, at the dock or in an on-land campground. The lakes waters can change rapidly, with dense fog, high winds, waves and thunderstorms not unheard of. Be sure to practice boating safety while in the park, and use Marine 16 on your marine radio in the event of an emergency.
