Isle Royale Seaplane
Our next early retirement travel stop was about overcoming the fear of flying and riding seaplanes to and from Isle Royale National Park!! This adventure was our first experience riding on a seaplane. Houghton, MI, was the launching point for this adventure and it is a beautiful town in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Our options for travel to the island were a nearly 6-hour boat ride or a 40-minute flight. Despite Bev’s fear of flying, we chose flying vs. boating because of the much shorter trip. We used Isle Royale Seaplanes for our trip to the park, and they were a very professional business and did a fantastic job. The pilots were very friendly and made us feel quite comfortable. In addition, they helped Bev to overcome the fear of flying. It was all worth it to spend some time hiking on the amazing Isle Royale National Park
