Friday looks good on us. 🌊🛥

The weekend is officially here, the glass is freshly polished (thanks to our underwater cleaning crew! 🤫🤿), and the Straits are calling. If your weekend plans don't include cruising over historic shipwrecks and looking out at the Mackinac Bridge, it’s time to rewrite them!

We have tours running all weekend long, but spots fill up fast. Grab your family, pack your favorite snacks, and let’s get out on the water. ⚓️

☀️🌡 MICHIGAN WATER CHECK-IN! 🌡☀️

We get asked all the time: "How cold is the water right now?" 🥶

Early June water is famously "refreshing," but because we cruise both the open Straits and the protected bay, you get two totally different lake experiences! Here’s the current breakdown:

The Straits of Mackinac: Hovering at a crisp 47°F to 48°F. The deep, moving currents of the Great Lakes take their time warming up, which is exactly why the shipwrecks down there stay so beautifully preserved! ⚓️

Duncan Bay: Coming in a bit warmer in the mid to high50s! Because the bay is shallower and sheltered, the June sun is already doing its magic to take the edge off. Don't worry, it'll be 75 in no time🤩

The best part? You get to view all of it from the warm, dry comfort of our glass-bottom boat! No wetsuit required to see history. 😉🤿 (Of course, those adventure seekers can scuba😁)
