Washington Avenue Beach — photo spot in Bayfield, WI 54814, USA
Washington Avenue Beach
Score4.4Small sandy beach on Lake Superior facing Apostle Islands and Bayfield Bay—great for wide lakescapes, sunrise/sunset colors, ice patterns in winter, and shoreline foregrounds with the town and boats. Easy public access with street parking nearby, no entry fee. Best at golden hour (sunrise for reflections; sunset for warm sky over the islands). Weekday mornings and shoulder seasons (spring/fall) offer fewer tourists and dramatic weather. Bring layers—wind off the lake is strong.
