Pictured Rocks Boat Cruise in Munising, Upper Peninsula, Michigan

A Pictured Rocks boat cruise along this National Lakeshore is the only way to get these sweeping views of the sandstone cliffs, sea caves, cliff waterfalls, inlet beaches and the full, true beauty of Pictured Rocks in Munising, Michigan of the Upper Peninsula. The scale may make them look smaller in video, but these are huge cliffs and trees.  If you look closely, you can see seagulls flying around the cliffs.  This was an early evening cruise on the majestic Lake Superior, the largest of the Great Lakes.   Light plays differently on the rocks throughout the day.   

Look for the shipwreck spot marked in our video.  Lake Superior is well known as the Graveyard of the Great Lakes for its many shipwrecks.  This area of coastline along Munising is part of what’s known as Shipwreck Coast for the many ships and lives lost in it’s treacherous waters.  You should be safe on the sightseeing boats, though.  Part of the ride is in Munising Bay and you don’t venture out on days with high seas.  Even though the waters were choppy here after a night of rain, our video is steady, so we hope you enjoy!  Check out our Travel blog for more of our awesome family travels.
