Perry's Victory and International Peace Memorial
Welcome to Perry's Victory & International Peace Memorial on South Bass Island in Put-in-Bay, Ohio. The area is an unique place situated on a small island, two miles by four miles in size on Lake Erie. South Bass Island has been an ideal stopping point for boaters ever since Native Americans "put in at the bay" during their many journeys across the lake. Access to the island is by plane or by a ferry boat ride. The area is known for its walleye fishing, eclectic mix of shops, restaurants and nightly entertainment.
