2019 Map of De Tour Village

About this map

De Tour Village serves as the gateway to the North Channel, situated at the southeastern tip of the Upper Peninsula where the Drummond Island Ferry connects the mainland to Drummond Island. This maritime landscape is defined by the narrow De Tour Passage, a critical navigational artery leading into Lake Huron through a series of hazards including De Tour Shoal and DeTour Reef. The coastline is heavily indented with bays such as Seymour Bay and Carlton Bay, while inland, Caribou Lake and Brown Lake dot the low-lying terrain. Several small islands like Frying Pan Island and Jones Island guard the harbor entrance. Local heritage is preserved in sites such as Maple Grove Cem, Bob Hill Cem, and Riverview Cem, which serve as vital markers for genealogical research in this long-standing lakefront community.
