The Apostle Islands of Northern Wisconsin JULY 19-25, 2025 The Beauty of Northern Wisconsin featuring the Apostle Islands Take a break from the world and immerse yourself in the “Crown Jewels of Lake Superior,” the Apostle Islands. Experience several of these gems - scenic archipelago of twenty-one islands by land and water, marveling at the famous red sandstone sea caves, crystal-clear waters, scenic overlooks with lush greenery, historic lighthouses, and nature-carved rock formations while lodging steps away from windswept beaches. A visit to Wisconsin wouldn’t be complete without stopping to pick up some cheese before heading home.
