Eagle Bluff Light
Even after the Civil War had ended, traveling down the Erie Canal and through the Great Lakes was an arduous journey. This strategically placed lighthouse has brought safety to many sailors passing through Green Bay, where waves break 76 feet below.
Peninsula State Park
Surrounding the lighthouse are the lofty bluffs and cobbled shores of Peninsula State Park. Reaching almost 4,000 acres into the island, the park has sandy beaches ideal for swimming, a summer theater and 18 hole golf course. Avail yourself of its superb fishing and picnic spots, or hire a boat and cruise out onto the glistening water.
Chambers Island
Named after Colonel Talbot Chambers, there are lakes splashed all over this scenic isle, which is home to another local attraction. The Chambers Island Lighthouse Park is a stunning spot well worth visiting, as is the Roman Catholic Diocese of Green Bay, a 70-acre former resort property.
Alexander Noble House
Hidden in Fish Creek is a Victorian property listed on the National Register of Historic Places, where you can travel back in time and experience life in the 19th century. Historical festivities here range from Old Peninsula Days to the Antique and Unique Wooden Boat Show and Heritage Days in the spring.
Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal
Overlooked by Sturgeon Bay Canal Pierhead Lighthouse, Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal went ahead largely because of the economic incentive of collecting tolls from vessels. It enabled ships to evade the treacherous Death's Door' passage at the northern end of the peninsula. The breakwater pier is one of the county's most photographed spots.
