Put-in-Bay
This island located on Lake Erie has long been a popular destination for tourists from the mainland. The most used mode of transportation is the ferry, a quick ride from either Sandusky or Port Clinton. There are also two airports on the island for those with planes. Other Lake Erie islands such as Middle Bass Island and Gibraltar dot the waters nearby.
The island itself is full of things to do. From shopping to dining, the opportunities are endless. There are plenty of public docks for boating and other fun outdoor activities such as kayaking and parasailing.
