Baileys Harbor Marina

Baileys Harbor offers a well-developed public launch facility on Lake Michigan's eastern shore in Door County. The access point features four lit launch ramps, making it suitable for kayaks, canoes, and larger recreational vessels. Short-term parking is available in designated Lots A and B, with long-term parking in Lot C. The adjacent marina provides convenient amenities including restrooms, showers, and laundry facilities.

This location serves as an excellent departure point for exploring Lake Michigan's scenic coastal waters and nearby islands. Paddlers can access Gravel Island National Wildlife Refuge, which includes Gravel Island (4 acres) and Spider Island (23 acres). The protected harbor provides a safer entry point to Lake Michigan's open waters, making it ideal for both beginning and experienced paddlers. The full-service marina offers fuel and additional support services for boaters.

Baileys Harbor is part of Door County's historic maritime landscape, with local attractions including four accessible lighthouses and the charming village of Baileys Harbor nearby, making this a practical base for both day trips and extended water-based exploration.
