The West Michigan Tourist Association is excited to announce another new live camera stream in their online gallery, this one from Drummond Island. The live stream may be found here: https://www.wmta.org/live-west-michigan-camera-gallery/drummond-island-west-michigan-live-camera/.
The Drummond Island Tourism Association has installed this live camera overlooking the ferry dock on the island. The Drummond Island Ferry runs daily to and from the mainland, 365 days a year.
The ferry, capable of holding 36 cars, crosses one mile across the St. Mary’s River to bring cars, passengers, trucks, and semi trucks across to the island. The St. Mary’s River is one of the busiest waterways in the world. It is an international waterway, with over 4,500 cargo carriers passing Drummond Island each year.
Dubbed the “Gem of the Huron” for a thousand good reasons, Drummond Island is famous for both its outdoor pursuits and pristine beauty. If you’re looking for adventure, explore over 100 miles of ATV and ORV trails, kayak the Heritage Water Trail around the island, or scuba dive to view multiple shipwrecks. Discover the wild side of the island by birdwatching during the migration seasons, hunt for whitetail deer, bear, and small game, or fish for pike, perch, and walleye. If it’s relaxation that you seek, immerse yourself in the peace and tranquility by strolling along the beach looking for puddingstones, or soak in the natural surroundings right from your deck chair. Boaters often call Drummond Island their home port. Whatever your desire, every season is the perfect reason to experience “island life.”
