This short and sweet trip has a great sand beach and some very good examples of the limestone cliffs that Door County is known for, including several stone grottos and caves. The clear green water contrasts with the white sand and gray rock, making the scenery wonderfully rich in color. Launch from the beach but take caution of strong southerly winds that can create big waves on the beach and cause a rip current at the north end of the beach. As you paddle east and north along the shore, the shoreline changes from sand to a low rock shelf and then to taller cliffs around Cave Point. Take your time and explore the caves and grottos around Cave Point. More caves continue north along the shore but the best are right around the point. Watch for reflection waves along the cliffs. The shoreline is all part of Whitefish Dunes State Park and Cave Point County Park with hiking trail to visit the caves if the water conditions are not welcoming.
