La Pointe Live Cam

To reach Madeline, board one of the three steel-hulled car/passenger ferries that depart from Bayfield, Wisconsin. It is a 20 minute, 2.6 mile trip over crystalline waters to the small town of LaPointe on Madeline’s southern shore. Not only is the ferry ride necessary for access, it is a great scenic cruise on Lake Superior! During mid-summer days, the ferries run on the half hour to and from the island. Check the schedule for early morning/evening and off season hours of operation. Ferries typically operate from March to mid-January depending on weather conditions.
