I spent the last couple of days exploring Door County, Wisconsin with my best friend and her family. As this was my second time there, I thought I could share some of my favorite places with y'all, especially in case you are thinking of making the trip!

1. Beach People

There are quite a few little shops and boutiques that line the streets of the little towns within Door County. However, the one that stuck out to me the most was Beach People in a town called Ephraim. Beach People is your one stop shop for all things nautical and bohemian, which is heaven for me! The store has everything from Door County t-shirts (I have a few) to sea turtle lights! I definitely recommend stopping in if you are in the area!

2. Good Eggs

Looking for a new breakfast spot? Try Good Eggs! Good Eggs is located in Ephraim and specializes in breakfast burritos and smoothies. Though the line is always long, it is a testament to the quality of the food. The burritos are amazing and the smoothies (try the strawberry banana) are super refreshing on a hot summer day in beautiful Wisconsin. There are only 3 things on the menu: a basic burrito (spuds, cheese, & eggs), a standard wrap (spuds, meat, cheese, & eggs), and a deluxe wrap (veggies, spuds, eggs, meat, & cheese). Fresh ingredients are always used, which means there are always new options and combos to try out! Oh, and there is always free coffee, which is always a plus!

3. Kayaking

Being in Door County, you have many points of access to Lake Michigan. Therefore, water activities are a must! Kayaking is super fun, but also a great workout! Don't have kayaks of your own? No worries! You can rent kayaks from Bay Shore Outfitters with locations in Sturgeon Bay and Sister Bay. Plus, if you really enjoy them you can buy kayaks from them as well! So get out and enjoy the nice weather and scenic views that are a part of daily life in Door County!

4. Drive-In Theatre

Are you an avid movie goer looking for a new way to experience your next favorite film? Why not go to the drive-in? Skyway Drive-In Theatre is located in Fish Creek, WI and is quite an experience! It is your classic drive-in theatre with large screen, plenty of parking spots, and a snack shack for all your junk food needs. There is even a special radio station that you can play whilst watching the film for premium sound quality!

5. Bonfires, Bonfires, Bonfires

Bonfires and summer are always a good combination, and having one whilst admiring the gorgeous sunsets of Door County, even better! The steamy days turn into chilly nights and a bonfire is the perfect way to stay warm whilst roasting marshmallows, hot dogs, or simply burning scraps! Plus, it creates a great atmosphere for a photoshoot!

6. Swimming

After a long day of exploring, swimming in Lake Michigan is the perfect way to cool off! My favorite spot to swim is Bay View Resort. It has a dock to jump off of, as well as a floating pier in the middle of the swimming zone. As soon as you hit the water, you are instantly cooled off and refreshed! You have to be a member or guest of the resort to swim there, however there are several other free places available for all your water activities.

There is so much to see in the many little towns scattered around Door County, WI and everything that I have experienced so far has been wonderful! It doesn't matter what you go to first, just go! I find it the most fun when running around Door County with my best friend, Ashley, so grab a friend and explore! You are sure to have a fabulous time in the beautiful state of Wisconsin!
