September 16 - Northport


We thought that we were going to Leland today, but the small craft advisory came up early, and we detoured to Northport and are so glad that we did. Not only did we get out of the 4-5 foot waves but had a great visit here. Martha, the harbormaster, was so welcoming and outfitted us with maps and suggestions for a delightful visit. First on the itinerary was rolls and coffee at Barb’s Bakery and then onto a bike ride to the Grand Traverse Lighthouse. The SW wind was blowing 25 knots which really highlighted the various shades of green water along the sandy shore. Great market which even had Starbucks Verona decaf coffee and Quince preserves.
