Sturgeon Bay, named Wisconsin's "Friendliest Small Town", is located on the scenic Door Peninsula in beautiful Door County, Wisconsin. Lake Michigan is to the East and the Bay to Green Bay is on the West. This quaint resort area is complete with fishing, water sports, hiking, and biking trails in the summer and groomed cross-country skiing and snowmobile trails in the Potawatomi State Park, in the winter.

Fishing... You'll love the waters of Sturgeon Bay! Trophy-size catches of walleye, muskee, northern pike, lake trout and salmon are abundant! Also, small mouth bass live in an old sunken ship that Sturgeon Bay Marine Center can help you locate.

The best kept secret in Sturgeon Bay, Sturgeon Bay Marine Center, offers you the most beautiful view of the bay in town! Sturgeon Bay Marine Center is conveniently located just a few blocks from historic West Side Sturgeon Bay. A left out of the Marina and a few more turns along the way, puts you onto Madison Avenue where you will find shops, restaurants, convenience stores and much more. There are also beaches and a wonderful Maritime Museum nearby. Getting to us by car is quick and easy. We are just off Hwy 42-57 in Sturgeon Bay. Take the Oxford Avenue exit. You will find us at the corner of Oxford Avenue and Nautical Drive on the west side of the bridge.

Sturgeon Bay Marine Center is set apart from the crowded cluster of the downtown marinas. To find us by boat, coming from Green Bay, we are the first marina on the right-hand side, just before the Red #16 and Green #15 Buoys. From Lake Michigan, we are the second marina on the left-hand side, turn left after the Red #16 and Green #15 Buoys. We are always monitoring VHF Channel 9, working Channel 11. Latitude 44 49 405, Longitude 87 22 688.

Once you've arrived, you'll find a true boater's haven away from the hustle and bustle of the congested harbor, but close enough just in case you want to be in the midst of the fun!
