Apostle Islands

[FreediveWI]

When I was up there we trailered our own boat. I also kayaked and camped for a few days and saw the majority of the wrecks that way- they aren't very deep. Most of them stick up out of the water at some point, or you can at least touch them while paddeling over them.

The deeper ones, if you can call them that, are the Sevona, at 25', and the Pretoria, at 48'. The Pretoria isn't too much to look at, so I would just freedive them, or, better yet, rent a kayak and paddle over them.

There was a shop in Ashland and another one, that wasn't open, in Bayfield. I remember seeing a charter boat there, along with a pretty nice Zodiac that they also took people out on, but don't remember seeing anyone up there.

There have been rumors of deeper wrecks up there for a long time, and there are some much deeper wrecks just to the west of there, but no numbers have been given out to the public- so far those are state kept secrets.
