1. Take a scenic drive, run, or bike ride. Admire the shoreline homes on Whitecliff Road, then head south as the bluff nears the shore and on to Horseshoe Bay Farms as you near Murphy Park.

2. Hit the beach. Thanks to a multi-million dollar expansion and enhancement, this is one of the county's most popular beaches for swimming, sunbathing, and paddling from the shore, and a great sunset spot.

3. Hit the links. Egg Harbor is home to four golf courses, covering all skill levels. The Alpine offers the oldest, most historic course; Stonehedge is great for new golfers; The Orchards is a top course amongst the cherry trees; and Horseshoe Bay Golf Club is the peak of Door County golf.

4. Bring the kids. Fish off the marina, spend the day swimming and paddling at the beautiful sand beach, or go on an ice cream crawl to several parlors and candy stores.

5. Shop. Visit dozens of unique gift shops and galleries, or bring the girlfriends to visit the many specialty women’s clothing boutiques.

6. Get a history lesson. Admire one of the oldest homes in Northern Door at Cupola House, take a step back in time at the Alpine Resort (Door County’s oldest resort, it dates to 1922), get haunted at Shipwrecked Brewpub, or check out Chief Oshkosh’s old trading post and amphitheater.
