Took our breath away!

I recommend the tour of the Apostle Islands to anyone visiting Bayfield, WI and the views at Devil’s Island are indescribable. The jagged beauty of the rocks that have been naturally edged by the rugged waters and the cool blue-green hue of the rippling water under the cave hoods is breathtaking. We visited during a windier time which caused white foam to splash on the rocks and since our tour was in the evening, the sun played off the foam. The photos and videos I uploaded don’t do justice to how beautiful and almost a little scary the island is.

If it's not closed

Usually closed. Been since 2019 for sure. Most likely for 2021 season too. Accessing the mainland anyway.
Caves by boat (sail, motor) are awesome to see. By kayak are made even better on calm days to access. Be weary as it is a 30+mile Roundtrip route. And that's direct.
The tale is, the light keeper would hear screaming during times of high wind. Thought it to be haunted. It's wind whistling through caves
