The fourth annual North Shore Water Festival (NSWF) in Grand Marais offers visitors a chance to get wet and participate in water activities and more on Friday, July 21 - Sunday, July 23, 2017 in Stone Harbor. "With Lake Superior to its south, the BWCA to its north, Isle Royale to its east, and inlands lakes throughout, Cook County has long been a mecca for paddling enthusiasts," says Jack Stone, owner of Stone Harbor Wilderness Supply. The NSWF will have experts on-hand offering fishing, touring kayak and canoe demonstrations, stand-up paddle board (SUP) demo activities in the harbor, including SUP yoga, plus check out what new water gear and equipment is available this year. Most activities are free to the public, and only require signing a waiver and/or registering in advance for SUP board yoga.
