After 33 years of offering guided shipyard walking tours, the Rotary Club of Sturgeon Bay is now moving to water-based tours to serve as its major fundraising event.
In years past, the walking tours would give attendees an opportunity to peak inside the world of shipbuilding at the Fincantieri Bay Shipbuilding yard in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin. However, due to growth at the yard, walking tours are no longer possible.
The new “Sturgeon Bay Working Waterfront Tours, Past and Present” — in partnership with Shoreline Boat Tours and the Door County Maritime Museum — will be narrated harbor tours focused on educating the public on the community’s ties to the Great Lakes.
The 90-minute tours will be held June 21 through June 23 and will highlight seven unique working waterfront points of interest. The 25-person boats will provide an up-close and personal look at the waterside of the harbor. Tickets will also include access to the Door County Maritime Museum and new Kress Viewing Tower.
Details and tickets will be available starting April 1 at DoorCountyTickets.com.
