Freshwater Whale Watching
The area between the public beach and Knife Island is a great spot to watch for Freshwater Whales, as they have been known to calve there in summer. Anyone with reports on sightings, or with video or photographs should contact Randy Ellestad of the Freshwater Whale Reserve at (218) 834-5044.

North Shore Scenic Railroad
The North Shore Scenic Railroad operates excursions along the historic Lakefront Line, a 26-mile
section of rail between Duluth and Two Harbors. This rail corridor served a vital link in the
transportation system for over 100 years. Known originally as the Lake Division, it connected the
isolated Duluth and Iron Range Railway with America's expanding rail network.
