Apostle Islands Cruise Service
If you prefer a motor to power your explorations, climb aboard the Apostle Islands Cruise Service boat. It departs at 10am from Bayfield's City Dock for a three-hour narrated trip past sea caves and lighthouses (adult/child $40/24). Other trips call at islands to drop off/pick up campers and their kayaks, which avoids the long, possibly rough paddle.
