Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is a breathtaking park in Northern Michigan that’s filled with towering dunes, stunning sunsets and sandy beaches.

In so many ways, Traverse City is defined by the water. This area was 20,000 years in the making when massive glaciers melted and cut gouges in the earth that became the Great Lakes. It was worth the wait. Today, it doesn’t matter if you are on, in, under, or just sightseeing; enjoying the beauty of the fresh, blue water, is an important part of any Traverse City vacation.
