15390 N. Lighthouse Pt. The Grand Traverse Lighthouse long served as a beacon guiding ships through the infamous Manitou Passage. Today you can learn more about the heritage of the inland seas and the importance of seafaring to this region at the turn of the century with a visit to the Grand Traverse Lighthouse, at the very tip of the Leelanau Peninsula. You can spend a delightful afternoon taking a scenic drive through Leelanau County to get there, followed by a tour of the restored lighthouse decked in period furnishings and nautical memorabilia. Then, relax, stroll the grounds, and enjoy a picnic surrounded by Lake Michigan's lapping waters and the tall trees of the Leelanau State Park.
