The Apostle Islands National Lakeshore has received yet another accolade for its scenery, recently being named a destination with one of the “most stunning sunsets” in the country by SIXT.
The rental car company analyzed more than 200 locations across the U.S. based on air quality, Instagram hashtag popularity, TikTok search volume and Google search volume.
Based on those metrics, the Apostle Islands took the 23rd spot on the list. Located in the northern portion of the Bayfield Peninsula, the nearly two dozen islands are complemented by 12 miles of Lake Superior shoreline.
SIXT Head of Partnerships Jen Adams told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel in an email that destinations like the Apostle Islands “have earned their place in the spotlight for good reason.”
“With its dramatic skies and unforgettable views, Apostle Islands National Lakeshore consistently draws travelers eager to witness the magic for themselves,” Adams said. “These sunsets are not just photogenic, they are proof that sometimes the most popular places online really do live up to the buzz.”
