About This Seaport
Despite appearing on port lists, La Pointe (UN/LOCODE US JPP) is not a commercial cargo harbour but the island terminus of the Madeline Island Ferry Line on Lake Superior. The crossing to Bayfield carries cars, passengers and local supplies rather than containers or bulk; a charted depth of about 1.8 metres rules out commercial freight vessels. There is no container terminal, customs post or stevedoring capability here. Forwarders moving cargo in this part of Wisconsin should route via the deep-water Great Lakes port of Duluth-Superior, roughly 90 km west, with Ashland as a closer local option.
