As with the more thickly-settled Little Bay de Noc, the bay's name comes from the Noquet (or Noc) Native American people (thought to have been related to the Menominee of the Algonquian language group), who once lived along the shores.
The peninsula is bordered by Lake Michigan on the east, and by Big Bay de Noc on the west.
