Summer is winding down, but summer and fall fun at Presque Isle State Park certainly isn’t! Spend an afternoon or weekend at the park, enjoying the last of the warm weather, or enjoying some of the unique fall activities the park has to offer.
- Head to the beach! Enjoy swimming, fishing, or relaxation on 11 miles of pristine coastline along Lake Erie. There are plenty of activities to enjoy as well—events, classes, sports, cleanups, and more.
Eat beach food. A must-stop of Presque Isle? Sara’s—where you can grab a famous hotdog, milkshake, or twist cone.- Fly a kite. Sunset Point, informally known as “Kite Beach” is the place for kite-lovers! Bring your own to fly, or merely admire the plethora of bright wings in the sky.
- Bike the Isle. Bring a bike or rent a bike to explore the park. A favorite trail is the 13-mile Multipurpose Trail.
- Discover the North Pier and the Lighthouse. It’s a less-popular spot than the Presque Isle Lighthouse, which makes it an unbeatable spot for secluded and unique views.
- Visit the Tom Ridge Environmental Center. Especially with the weather cooling down, this can be a great indoor option filled with education, history, and absolutely unbeatable views from its tower!
