KAYAKING to TURNIP ROCK with PORT AUSTIN KAYAK | Michigan's MOST POPULAR Place to Kayak
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 тра 2021
- What if I told you one of Michigan's best kept secrets is location in Port Austin, Michigan? One of the MOST POPULAR things to do during the summer is to KAYAK to TURNIP ROCK.
Turnip Rock is a small geological formation located off the shores of Lake Huron in Port Austin Michigan. The kayaking route is roughly 7 miles round trip from downtown Port Austin along the beautiful coast of Lake Huron. If you do not own a kayak, I highly recommend Port Austin Kayak (www.portaustinkayak.com/) for all of your kayak rentals. A kayak rental for 4 hours cost $40, they launch you right from their property and is the best company in town! I have rented with them several times and can't recommend them enough!
Kayaking to Turnip Rock runs from Memorial Day to September. Dates make fluctuate as it all depends on weather and the water. Keep in mind, kayaking may be canceled due to bad weather or rough waters. Your safety is key!

Have you ever heard of Turnip Rock? Have you ever kayaked Turnip Rock? And last but not least, would you kayak Turnip Rock? If you love to kayak, leave me the BEST place you have ever kayaked before down 👇🏼 below in the comments!
Best place, the Colorado River up to the Grand Canyon.
@@jackers245 I hear that is an epic kayaking spot!
You both have done an excellent job explaining everything. I am afraid of kayaking but you too have sparked my curiosity.
Thank you so much! I love hearing that I explained everything and sparked your curiosity! Hopefully you can conquer your fears and kayak to turnip rock!
So much fun, I'm glad we were able to go on the random day I ended up having off! And I love how in most of these clips I am soooo far behind you LOL To funny. And that damn spider! Thankfully he did not make another appearance after you saw him!
Hey Amy!! How ya doing? I remember you and Kayla from Cancun. Recovered from the twenty drinks?! :)
Omg thank god Charlotte find a home that was not in my shorts 🤣 I am so happy we were able to do that! Next up, let’s hit Detroit!
Such an awesome video I've shared it out to our community tab! great video.
Have you guys ever made it to Port Austin to kayak to turnip rock?
Looks like a really cool spot!! Big fan of kayaking, so I might have to add this to my list of things to do if I'm in the area ☺ Loooovveeeee the drone footage!
I love kayaking too! It's so fun and peaceful! If you ever make your way to Michigan, this is definitely a thing you NEED to do! Also, thanks girl! I am trying to perfect my drone flying! Also, it was easy to do when Michigan was showing off a bit lol
This looks like SUCH a fun day out!
It was so much fun and exactly what the doctor ordered! We have had such a long winter, being out on the water was exactly what I needed!
Have family at the tip. Planning this kayak trip with my son. Thank you for the info. Makes me feel a bit more at ease. Hope the weather is as good for us. Thanks again. Mississippi out.
so pretty
Very beautiful views, love the clip @ 7:37. Enjoyed watching.
I’m glad you loved all of the amazing views of Lake Huron and Turnip Rock. Michigan was showing off that day!
I am so proud of your drone footage, that water is so beauitful!! Dying at your face when you said, "little ant" 😂
Yay for finally having drone footage in a vlog! Now I am addicted! Can you believe that that's not even our most clearest and prettiest Great Lake?
Just found your channel and am already in love! can't wait to come along for the journey all the way from the UK! x
Aw thank you so much for joining the journey! I have a lot of Michigan adventures to share with you as well as hopefully more international travel in the future! Whereabouts in the UK?
@@TheWanderfulLifeofKayla looking forward to them!! And I’m from Plymouth in Devon!
@@lucycooksley That's awesome! I love seeing people all over the world be able to connect through my channel due to their love of travel! Welcome!
This is such a beautiful place!! I’ve never been kayaking, but I will one day!!
Michigan truly is filled with wonder and beautiful places! I am glad I was able to share this little slice of heaven with you! I hope this video can help you conquer that fear of kayaking because there is so many beautiful sights to see that can only be accessed via water!
Thank you @@TheWanderfulLifeofKayla!! Your video does help!! Thank you so much!!
Girl!!! That drone footage!!🤤🤤🤤
Pat on the back for flying that baby over Lake Huron! But honestly now I can’t get enough and wanna go somewhere just to get epic drone footage!
@@TheWanderfulLifeofKayla You're inspiring me to get out there and practice more!!!
@@CherayaMiyoko Girl, get that drone out and fly it! I need to hit the road and start getting epic footage. I am honestly thinking of peacing out and doing South Dakota.
cool beautiful lake
have a nice vacation there
Greeting from Indonesian
Michigan has a lot of beautiful lakes like this! Welcome to my channel!
رووووووعه اختى احسنتى النشر بالتوفيق
is cruise available? some of my teammates are scared of kayaking.
Very Nice Video. Greetings ronactive
Thank you so much! I am glad you enjoyed it!
This rock is funny. Looks like a nice little island :p
It's a pretty cool rock formation in the middle of Lake Huron!
@@TheWanderfulLifeofKayla Thank you :)
Roughly how deep was the water around the base?
Thats going to vary year to year depending on water levels.
Any good food recs in the area?
There are a lot of mom and pop shops around. But my go to is always The Bank 1884. It’s right in downtown with pretty good food!
About how long did it take each way?
We have a 4 hour Kayla rental and we returned on the 4 hour mark. We leisurely kayaked there and was quicker coming back. It will all depend on your speed, kayaking level and the water. Once we arrived, we had Turnip Rock to ourselves so we stayed for over an hour to just enjoy.
How far from Ontario?
I am unsure where in Ontario you are at but from Windsor it is about 2 1/2 hours. You can Google directions from your location to Port Austin, Michigan.
@@TheWanderfulLifeofKayla Well my sister is in TO. Her stepdaughter was in Thunder Bay at Lakehead University. I and my family are an hour northeast of Boston by air. A quick flight to Beantown.
I think I got here through Jetting Julia. You should check her out. A flight attendant for American Airlines and Vlogs HER travels around the globe! PS I like seeing your kitties and doggies behind you! "Mommy's doing the camera thing. I wanna go for walk!"
So, Japan, Korea, Brazil, Eastern Europe... You been, right? Like it there? Where I wanna go too!
Are you allowed to get on top? I'd only go there if I could throw a party on the top of it. I'm thinking a grappling hook around one of the trees and just like gym class climb the rope up where I will then attach a rope ladder somewhere secure for everyone else to get up easier.
No you are not. The surrounding property is private so like I said you need to be respectful. The rock is protected so why would you think it would be ok to climb it as if you are in gym class?
@@TheWanderfulLifeofKayla cause it's cool duh🤣 what's the point of just going to look at it.
@@garrettprosser7336 sounds like you don’t respect our earth so I would advise you not to visit this piece of paradise. Defacing any part of this area comes with a fine. It’s people like you with that mindset that ruin places for others.
