Manitowoc

Known as Wisconsin’s “Maritime Capital,” Manitowoc celebrates its past and its present as a shipbuilding center with fascinating attractions. The largest maritime museum on the Great Lakes is here, with displays of everything from wooden sailing ships to a World War II-era submarine. Charter sport fishing boats and sail out of the city’s modern harbor and marina. The city is also the homeport of the largest carferry on the Great Lakes, carrying cars and passengers from Manitowoc to Ludington, Michigan and back. The downtown includes a classic candy store/antique soda fountain.
