Personal Watercraft Personal watercraft (PWC) may travel within the lakeshore from the western boundary near
Sand Point to the eastern terminus of
Miners Beach. PWC may be launched from the Sand Point boat ramp. PWC are not permitted elsewhere within the lakeshore's one-quarter mile offshore jurisdiction along the Lake Superior shoreline.
Due to horsepower restrictions, PWC are not allowed on inland lakes within Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.
According to
State of Michigan law, PWC must not operate from one hour before sunset to 8 a.m. When traveling within 200 feet of the shoreline, PWC must travel at a slow/no-wake speed perpendicular to the shoreline.
