Scenic Lake Michigan Cruise Showcases Manistee Fall Beauty
Discover the natural beauty of Manistee on a scenic cruise departing from Manistee City Marina along the downtown River Boardwalk. The journey offers wonderful views of Lake Michigan, the surrounding shoreline, and vibrant seasonal colors. Guests can relax aboard while enjoying a peaceful sightseeing experience shaped by the days conditions.
The cruise begins with Princess heading toward the Manistee Harbor Lighthouse to assess the lake conditions. Depending on wind, waves, and passenger comfort, the captain may choose a northern or southern route. Every decision is made with safety and comfort as the highest priority throughout the excursion.
A southern journey follows the shoreline toward Big Point Sable, while the northern route travels toward Onekama and the entrance to Portage Lake. When Lake Michigan becomes uncomfortable, the cruise moves inland along the Manistee River, passing beneath two drawbridges before reaching Manistee Lake.
The inland route provides opportunities to view the City of Milwaukee, a popular tourist attraction, along with a large United States Coast Guard rescue vessel and other local sights. Regardless of the chosen route, guests can enjoy the spectacular fall colors surrounding Manistee. Please note that at least twenty adults are required for the cruise to operate, with affected guests contacted twenty four hours beforehand.
