Bayfield Marina Formerly Apostle Islands Marina

At the heart of Bayfield, Wisconsin, the Bayfield Marina, formerly known as the Apostle Islands Marina, stands as a gateway to the storied Apostle Islands. Located at 116 S 1st St, this marina is set amidst a region where the natural and cultural histories intertwine.
