The point is the world’s largest freshwater bay mouth sand bar.[2] The Wisconsin Point Lighthouse, built in 1913, is situated on the end of the peninsula. It is owned and maintained by the city of Superior.[3] Other features of Wisconsin Point include a Native American burial ground, extensive beaches and vistas of the city of Duluth, Minnesota, and a diverse forest and lagoon ecosystem. It is well-known spot for birding during spring and fall migrations and ducks, shorebirds, gulls, hawks, and songbirds, such as warblers, finches, and sparrows, can be seen.[4]
