Grand Traverse Bay is an arm of Lake Michigan. The bay is separated from the rest of Lake Michigan by the Leelanau Peninsula. The bay is some 32 miles long, ranges from 7 to 10 miles wide, and up to 620 feet deep in spots. It is the second-largest bay of Lake Michigan, behind Green Bay. Grand Traverse Bay earned its name from 18th-century French voyageurs who made "la grande traverse" or a long trek or crossing, across the mouth of bay. The most famous feature of the Grand Traverse Bay is the division into East and West arms by the Old Mission Peninsula. During this tour, on the way from Traverse City to Hawthorne Vineyards, our tour guests will see stunning views of the East Bay. Tour guests will be driven right along the shoreline at times. On the drive from Hawthorne to Bowers guests will see views of the West Bay. Tour guests will see views of both East and West Bays during the rest of the tour as well. A very large part of this award winning tour are the views!

About Traverse City
Traverse City is a lakeside city in northern Michigan on Grand Traverse Bay, known for cherries, vineyards, sandy beaches and great dunes nearby.
Traverse City sits at the head of Grand Traverse Bay, an arm of Lake Michigan in the north-west of Michigan's Lower Peninsula. Sandy beaches and a waterfront park with a marina lie in front of a compact downtown of brick buildings, restaurants and independent shops. The region calls itself the cherry capital of the world, and orchards of tart cherries cover the hills around the bay.
