Ride the boat . . . to Beaver Island!
Feel yourself start to relax the moment your board one of our ferry vessels. Become hypnotized by the passing water as it dances around the boat. Soak in the sun and cool lake breeze from one of our open air decks or curl up with a good book and a loved one in one of our comfortable passenger cabins. We encourage you to forget your watch and begin to get acquainted with “Island time.”
Beaver Island Boat Company has been providing the most relaxing, affordable transportation for people, pets, vehicles, and freight to Beaver Island for over 20 years and reservations for passengers are never required.
A trip aboard one of our ferries is a must for those who believe the journey should be just as wonderful as the destination.
Beaver Island offers - nature lovers and sportsmen alike - pristine woods, isolated beaches, hiking and biking trails, and uncrowded campsites. Fine dining, hotel, motels, and bed and breakfasts await those looking for an extended get away. Those searching for a truly removed up-north destination will find it on Beaver Island.
Whether you spend a day or week we’re sure you’ll fall in love with Beaver Island.

Venetian Festival - Charlevoix - July 17 - 24, 2010
Categories: Charlevoix, Entertainment, Events, Featured
What began 80 years ago as a simple candle-lit boat parade has grown into a week-long flurry of color and pageantry that highlights the summer season and attracts tens of thousands of visitors.
The Festival offers a wonderful variety of events geared to delight and entertain every age group. Most events take place within waterfront parks, Round Lake Harbor and Lake Charlevoix.
WHAT’S MISSING AT VENETIAN?
Have you ever noticed what is missing at the Venetian Festival?
- It isn’t live entertainment. Throughout Venetian Week, bands in East Park will be jumping with a wide variety of music.
- It isn’t kids’ activities. The Venetian Games include kids and teens in soccer, basketball, running, boarding, sailing, volleyball, golf and tennis tournaments. Teens are provided their own music venue at the “Battle of the Bands.” Kid’s Day at Lake Michigan Beach also provides a slew of low and no cost children’s entertainment.
- It isn’t spectator opportunities. The street parade and the boat parade have entertained spectators for decades.
- It certainly won’t be fireworks that are missing, considering the festival features two nights of world class fireworks displays.
What’s missing is admission prices. All of the big events and entertainment offered at the Venetian Festival are absolutely free to the public. The Venetian tradition has thrived, however, through the support of loyal Venetian fans.
