A classic Wisconsin beach town.

Beach Coastal Fishing Boating Midwest

Proud of its reputation as both the “Bratwurst Capital of the World” and the “Freshwater Surf Capital of the World,” Sheboygan’s local identity is a unique hybrid of classic Midwestern and coastal lifestyles. When the weather is warm, locals love to take advantage of the close proximity to Lake Michigan for boating, fishing, sunbathing, swimming, and yes, even surfing. Several inland parks and golf courses offer a nice change of pace for more outdoor fun. Sheboygan is home to many venues for visual and performing arts, and The Sheboygan Project has provided local artists with wall space around the city to create murals. Being a popular tourist destination, much of the local dining and nightlife can be found near the coast and the river, particularly around 8th Street.
