Peninsula State Park - Nicolet Bay Boat Landing

Nicolet Bay in Fish Creek provides a public boat ramp approximately 20 feet wide that accommodates most watercraft, including kayaks, canoes, and powerboats. The ramp offers direct access to the waters of Green Bay and Lake Michigan, making it a convenient launch point for both paddlers and motorized boaters exploring this section of Lake Michigan.

The site includes a trailer ramp dock on the north side of the bay where dinghies and smaller watercraft can be secured, allowing paddlers to tie up and explore the nearby Fish Creek area on foot or by bike. Nearby, the Gravel Island National Wildlife Refuge—comprising Gravel Island (4 acres) and Spider Island (23 acres)—offers an interesting paddling destination for those looking to explore Lake Michigan's islands. Paddlers should be prepared for Lake Michigan conditions and check weather forecasts before launching, as conditions can change rapidly on this large water body.
