Whitefish Point Lighthouse, Paradise, MI

From the wreck of the schooner Invincible in 1816 to the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald in 1975, the waters off Whitefish Point have always been one of the most dangerous sections of Lake Superior and is know a the "Graveyard" of the Great Lakes.



Whitefish Point today, tho remote, is very interesting with the Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum, lighthouse,  keepers's quarters, a gift shop and store. From the lengthy shoreline  on a clear day you can see the coastline of Ontario.
