Superior Adventure Boats

The Lower Harbor adventure includes viewing the now inoperable ore dock, Lighthouse and Mattson Lower Harbor Park.  Around the ore dock you will  get the chance to see the massive size of the dock as well as some of the original docks used when the harbor first opened.  Mattson Lower Harbor was previously referred to as the "coal dock" by many boaters as it was once a storage for the massive amounts of coal shipped in by the many ore boats.
