At the edge of Lake Superior, the NPS Little Sand Bay Marina stands as a testament to the enduring allure of the North Woods. Located in Russell, Wisconsin, this marina is a convergence of natural beauty and rich history. Established on grounds once envisioned by the South Shore Club in 1923 as a resort to attract tourists, the area has evolved into a thriving recreational hub. The marina, jointly managed by the National Park Service and the Town of Russell, serves as a base for maintaining NPS facilities across the Apostle Islands.
The marina offers a range of amenities, including a boat launch, docking slips, and a beach that invites both relaxation and adventure. Nearby, the Little Sand Bay Recreation Area, operated by the Town of Russell, features a campground with RV and tent sites, a swimming beach, and picnic areas. This blend of modern facilities and historical significance makes the NPS Little Sand Bay Marina an ideal destination for those seeking to explore the pristine waters and shores of Lake Superior. As kayakers and boaters set out to discover the nearby Sand and York Islands, the marina remains a welcoming and well-equipped haven.
