Grand Traverse Bay Underwater Preserve

The Grand Traverse Bay Underwater Preserve encompasses the east and west arms of Grand Traverse Bay from Cathead Bay in the northwest over to Norwood in the northeast.

The waters of the preserve contain shipwrecks from the 1800s up to the 1970s, historically significant cultural sites such as one of the oldest dock remains in Michigan, as well as fun dive sites like a 1970s Ford Pinto.
