Pebble Beach, Door County, WI

Just off Hwy 42 in Sister Bay, Wisconsin is a quiet beach with some choice skippers.  This is a personal favorite rock skipping beach, and has a great combination of stones and calm water.  The beach is protected by a small bay in Wisconsin's Door County peninsula; on a calm day, there are practically no waves.

Parking is limited to the access road, and there are private homes along the beach.

The stones are Dolomit from the Silurian Period - nearly 450 million years old.  It's a harder, less platy rock than shale and limestone - and presumably a little tougher to find a very flat skipper.
