By ship
The municipal dock is located at the fine natural harbor in St. James, on the Island's NE side. Showers and toilets are available, as well as transient moorings for boaters.
By bike
Most of the roads on the island are gravel and dusty and bumpyâ¦definately mountain bikes and wide tires. That said, in the town you can get around very easily on a bike on the paved roads near town.
If you're up for a gravel road bike adventure then Beaver Island is a great spot with lots of areas to explore.Beautiful sandy beaches and also trails through old growth forests. The island is about 14 miles long, in fact it's shaped a lot like the island of Ireland. It's a nice and friendly place to visit.
By car
If you didn't bring a vehicle with you on the ferry, you can rent a minivan or sport utility vehicle:
