We are giving you our top 5 reasons to love Kelleys Island. The Best of Lake Erie's islands in Ohio. These are the MUST DO'S of Kelleys Island.
So her is our top 5 list of things to do in Kelleys Island.
#5 Breweries and Wineries. There are great places to get a drink on the island, This trip we visit Kelley's Island Wine Co. There is so much more here then wine. There are farm animals, games, pizza ovens, a Mexican Cantina, and corn hole. It's a great place for famiilies.
#4 Camping. This is the best camping in Ohio Kelley's Island State Campgrounds offer electric and non electric sites. They also have convenient and clean bathrooms and showers. The campgrounds offer wonder views of Lake Erie along with fishing, swimming, and trails to secret beeches.
#3 Next on the list is Transportation. Now cars are aloud on the Island but golf cart and bikes are the preferred way to get around. Kelley's is only 4.5 miles and its easily bikeable. Also once you are here guest love to island hop, using private boat or the Jet Express. Even getting her is fun. We use the Island car Ferry. There are multiple times a day. You can even schedule your ferry ride during sunset.
#2 2 on our list is the East Quarry. The abandoned lime stone quarry on the islands interior is filled with hiking and biking trails along with the filled quarry for swimming, fishing and our family's favorite...Cliff jumping.
#1 Our top spot had to go with rock hunting. Sea Glass and Fossils to be exact. Lake Erie Funnels in a to of sea glass and also the limestone island use to be the floor of an ancient sea. And guests can find fossils of shells and corals.

Years ago, the ferry brought a circus to the island. We powered up the boat and took the grandchildren over to watch the fun. We got to see the elephants help set the tent up and get close to the performers. Nothing like watching the elephant get off the boat in the evening. It's a great destination even though the circus doesn't come by anymore. Thanks for a great video. I miss the islands in Lake Erie.

Thank you so much for mentioning East Quarry. It is underrated and incredibly beautiful. As both a runner and a nature lover, I felt like I was dreaming while running through here. Also, this island has so many other beautiful nature areas, like North Pond, various amazing trails in the northwestern part of the island, “The Cut, ” etc.

Was that a sand-snowman I spied on the beach? I actually never thought about the Great Lakes having islands. Cool spot/find!

This really is the best place to camp!

I have never heard of Kelley’s Island. I watch a lot of YouTube but I discover the most from your channel. I would go there just drive the golf cart around. Cliff jumping would freak me out. I just heard of sea glass hunting. So much info in this quick video.

I live on the island year round. Greatest Island on the lake! Holla at me on my porch at Beach Rd and W Lakeshore drive with the huge garden

I love this island. Personally I think it’s better than Put In Bay

Back in the '50s we used to to go to nearby Bay Point Park (privately owned), At that time I was tiold that during the Civil War Confederate POW's were held on Kelly's Island.
