Lighthouse Festival Tickets Available

The Cana Island lighthouse is among those participating in the Maritime Museum’s Lighthouse Festival in June.

Ticket sales began this month for the Door County Lighthouse Festivals, set for June 7-9 and Oct. 4-6.

These fundraising weekends for the Door County Maritime Museum and Lighthouse Preservation Society Inc. include air, land-based, boat and adventure tours that provide access to all 11 of the treasured lighthouses of Door County and three neighbors to the south. 

Many of the tour excursions are unique to the Lighthouse Festival weekends and provide visitors exclusive access to lighthouses not typically open to the public, like the Chambers Island, Plum Island and Sherwood Point Lighthouses. 

There are tours for all levels of activity and accessibility. Some involve hiking. Boat tours depart from a variety of locations around the Peninsula, including Sister Bay, Gills Rock and Baileys Harbor. 

A portion of each Lighthouse Festival tour ticket helps fund the Door County Maritime Museum and Lighthouse Preservation Society Inc.
