Kayaking & canoeing on Isle Royale

Kayaking or canoeing on Isle Royale is a whole different level of adventure, requiring lots of stamina and planning. An experienced guide can really make a trip easier and safer. The cost of a five- to eight-day trip (usually starting around $1,500) is not a bad deal considering how expensive it is just getting to the island, let alone having equipment and food.
