This cruise will take approximately 25 minutes. Dates: May 24th, 25th and June 20th - August 17th, 2008. Buy a Ticket online and Save!

Historic lighthouses like you've never seen them before.

Since colonial days, the Straits of Mackinac has bristled with shipping activity. Laced with treacherous shoals and reefs, scores of lighthouses have been erected over the years to protect life, limb and property.

Every Shepler's Lighthouse Cruise is a true learning experience. Guests are treated to awe-inspiring views and learn of shipwrecks, navigation methods, and fascinating historical accounts of these guardians of the Great Lakes.
