The Grand Island East Channel Light is a lighthouse located just north of Munising, Michigan and was intended to lead boats from Lake Superior through the channel east of Grand Island into the Munising Harbor.

[10] As two commentators, lamenting the possible loss of this unique light station, noted in Lighthouse Digest:[9] It is seen and photographed by thousands of tourists via the Picture Rocks Cruises and Grand Island Charters Glass Bottom Boat tours which make it their first stop on their numerous tours.

It appears on sweatshirts, tee-shirts, coffee mugs, post cards, advertisements, and calendars.

In 2000, 85 volunteers worked steadily for thirty days, and completed 75% of a 300-foot-long (91 m) seawall to protect the light.
