点评:If you’re visiting Door County, put a day trip to Washington Island on your list — and the adventure starts with the ferry! ⛴️❤️
We visited during the last week of August and got in line about 15–20 minutes before departure, paid and drove right onto the ferry. The crew was incredibly friendly and made the whole process so easy.
The ride across is about 30 minutes, and it’s part of the fun! Get out of your car, walk around the ferry, enjoy the views and take some pictures. We had relatively calm water, although I’m sure Lake Michigan can make the ride a little more adventurous on other days! 😂
TIP: Pick up a Washington Island visitor guide before you board. It’s the perfect time to look over the map, restaurants, shops and attractions and decide what you want to see once you arrive.
Also, keep an eye on the return ferry schedule — you definitely don’t want to miss your ride back to the mainland!
We first visited Washington Island back in the early 1980s, and it was so much fun returning and seeing how the island has grown. The ferry ride is part of the whole Washington Island experience and absolutely worth doing!
翻译:如果你打算去多尔县旅游,一定要把前往华盛顿岛的一日游列入行程——而这一切就从乘渡轮开始哦!⛴️❤️
我们是在八月的最后一周去的,在出发前15到20分钟就去排队了。付完费后便直接开车上了渡轮。工作人员极其友善,让整个流程变得简单又顺利。
渡轮航行时间约为30分钟,这本身也是一种乐趣呢!你可以下车,在渡轮上四处走走,欣赏沿途风景,再拍些照片留念。那天湖水相对平静,不过我敢肯定,在其他日子里密歇根湖的波涛可能会让行程变得更具冒险色彩呢!😂
小贴士:上船前先拿一份华盛顿岛的旅游指南。现在正是查看地图、餐馆、商店以及各种景点,并决定抵达后想去哪里游玩的好时机。
另外,务必留意返程渡轮的时刻表——可千万别错过了返回大陆的班船哦!
我们第一次造访华盛顿岛是在20世纪80年代初。能再次回到这里,看到岛屿发生的种种变化,真的非常有趣。乘坐渡轮也是华盛顿岛之旅的重要组成部分,绝对值得一试!
