Sand Point Charters, LLC (Phone: 906-370-2257) will provide a fun and relaxing day on the inland lakes or Lake Superior away from the daily stress. You will enjoy fishing on Lake Superior, lighthouse cruises, scenic tours or catch trophy fish or just soak up the sun aboard the 30 foot Kingfisher, the NEW “Fishin Mission”. It’s perfect for fishing for lake trout, or seeing some of the lake’s old lighthouses and Keweenaw’s beautiful shoreline.

On Lake Superior, Lake Trout is the most common catch, (see my post on “Dispelling the Myth… Eating Lake Trout) but we also catch many Coho Salmon, some Steelhead and King Salmon and an occasional Brown Trout.

We will give you some history of the local shipwrecks and lighthouses of Lake Superior a as you enjoy your day on the water. Catch trophy lake trout at Stannard Rock if you are one of the more adventuresome, as the “Rock” is 35 miles offshore, but holds some of the largest lake trout in the “Big Lake.”

Eagle Harbor Lighthouse

Your charter can be as custom-designed as you like it, or choose from our many standard trips on the “Rates” page. We will take you alone, or up to a party of 6 on our very comfortable and safe 30 foot Kingfisher.

We also make trips to Stannard Rock Lighthouse, Huron Island, Granite Rock. These are all offshore that cannot be seen except by boat. The season starts in the spring after the ice is gone and goes to late fall before snowfall.

Book early, as our summer fills up fast especially the month of July and the first 1/2 of August.
