The 2026 Put-in-Bay season is officially underway! But the island businesses don’t all open up at once, it’s staggered throughout April and early May. To keep you in the know, we’re tracking down as much info as we can about each business’s plans to open for 2026. The dates below are subject to change. Our information is good, but not definitive so when in doubt, call ahead! We’ll update the page as more dates come in!

What To Expect In April:
We love having guests to the island in April, but if you’re thinking of coming and you have the idea of a big party in your mind, we want to make sure you temper your expectations. Most of the island’s April visitors are fishermen. This is also a great time to explore our parks and trails. However there are only a couple of bars and restaurants open, you should expect a quieter experience. Check out this post for some info on the big April events.
