We are planning work this spring to remove the sand buildup in the channel entrance to the Island boat basin and hope to complete the work in time to offer days trips to the island by July 1, 2026.
The trip will offer the public the opportunity to take a ride across Saginaw Bay to Big Charity Island and visit the Island Lighthouse. We have a beautiful screened dining pavilion up at the lighthouse so bring a cooler with a box lunch and enjoy a lunch with a panoramic view of Saginaw bay next to the lighthouse built in 1857.
