Have you ever noticed how conditions a few miles off of shore can be very different than in a protected harbor or shoreline? Wouldn’t it be nice to have a tool to tell us wave height, their direction and the surface temp of the water? You are in luck! Lake of the Woods Tourism is excited to announce the wave buoys have been deployed again for the 2026 open water season. These buoys are strategically placed across Lake of the Woods, a major step forward in safety, planning, and visitor experience on one of the largest freshwater lakes in the U.S.
