Apostle Islands Sea Caves from Meyers Beach via Lakeshore Trail in Apostle Islands National Lakeshore

The Lakeshore Trail offers a scenic hike through lush northern forests that open onto dramatic sandstone cliffs along Lake Superior. Hikers will encounter iconic views of sea caves—natural formations created by centuries of wave action—that include arches and cliffside openings where waves echo through the caves. This moderately challenging trail leads through tranquil forests of pine and birch and offers periodic lookouts over rugged shoreline cliffs, making it a memorable experience for nature enthusiasts. #Hike #Caves #Lake #Cliff #Forest #Nature
