1 Hour Sunset / Twilight Tour 🌞🎇
$30 per person
Every day should end with a grand finale and the last tour of the evening is exactly that! What better way to explore the Portage Canal than with a 1 hour Sunset / Twilight tour to unwind at the end of your day! Feel free to send us music suggestions to play while you watch the soft glowing light from the sky fadeaway as the sun is below the horizon, caused by the refraction and scattering of the sun's rays from the atmosphere on the Keweenaw Waterway. While we whisp into the night.
I will be happy to answer any questions regarding our area or you can just just relax and absorb the beauty of the canal. While we do have non-alcoholic beverages to purchase, you are invited to bring your own beer or wine (no glass bottles, please.) An ice chest and refrigerator are available to keep your drinks cold while the sunset warms your soul.

About Copper Country Boat Tours
Top-Rated Tour Guide
Take a Portage Canal tour with us aboard the SS Dragonfly! Our Duffy electric boat is emission free and quiet, which means no fumes or loud engine noises. Join us and breathe in the fresh air of the beautiful Keweenaw Peninsula and kick up your feet while an experienced Captain/ Tour Guide takes you on a tour. Our Historical Tour will take you into the past, teaching you about the vast historical importance of the Copper Country and the Portage Canal or choose our Sunset/ Twilight Tour and watch the sun go down while relaxing on our beautiful canal. We also give you the option to rent the vessel for a private tour. We have soda and water available for purchase, but please feel free to bring your own beer or wine (no glass bottles, please).
The Dragonfly is made to seat 12 but we are considered an uninspected passenger vessel (OUPV) which means this vessel for hire is only allowed to take six passengers at a time (including children). Lucky for you, this means plenty of elbow room! Our boat is also equipped with a surrey canvas /side windows and a heater. for those not so perfect days to keep you warm and dry so you can join us anytime- rain or shine!
