Northern Wisconsin may be better known for ice fishing than body surfing, but the area also offers plenty of summerime recreation opportunities.

And all the waterfront on the St. Croix River, as well as all the area's lakes, affords lots of places to take a refreshing swim, toss around a plastic disc or just ignore all that healthy-skin advice and catch some rays.
