Have you ever heard of the “Southernmost” point buoy in Key West, Florida? Well, there’s a lesser-known “Northernmost” cousin waiting for you in Minnesota, a whopping 1,858 miles away in Angle Inlet!
Back in 1983, the city of Key West put up a buoy at the corner of South and Whitehead Streets, just 90 miles from Cuba.
This concrete buoy marks the southernmost point in the continental United States. You can find it at the 1400 Block of Whitehead Street, facing the Atlantic Ocean in Key West, FL 33040.
Now, let’s head north to Young’s Bay Resort in the community of Angle Inlet, MN. That’s where you’ll find the northernmost marker in the contiguous US.
Young’s Bay is the go-to spot for visitors and residents heading to the island resorts or cabins among the islands of the NW Angle. Plus, it’s right next to Jerry’s Bar and Restaurant, where you can grab a cold beer or a tasty burger. Check it out at: 7600 Young’s Bay Dr NW, Angle Inlet, MN 56711.
