Traverse City - all beaches

This beach is a great find, tucked away from the usual crowds and perfect for bringing your furry friend along! The sandy beach is lovely, the water is peaceful, and there are no rocks to worry about. Additionally, there is a picnic area, playground, and restroom facilities available.

While this beach can become quite crowded, it's a wonderful spot to enjoy your freshly acquired tasty treats such as fudge, ice cream, or other delectable goodies from the charming local shops! Although swimming is popular among many visitors, it's not personally my preferred destination, especially with the marina located just nearby. However, the presence of a playground and volleyball court ensures that there are still plenty of activities to engage in, even if you choose not to take a dip. It's worth noting that there are no trees directly on the beach, so it can get quite hot under the sun. Fortunately, there are some trees in the back area, so remember to bring your sunscreen for protection.

Traverse City boasts a small, yet tranquil beach. However, securing a parking spot in the limited beach parking lot may prove to be quite challenging, as it can only accommodate around 25 to 30 vehicles. Additionally, there is a restroom available, although it lacks proper hygiene.

There's a volleyball court located right in the heart of downtown. It gets really crowded during the summer with lots of people playing volleyball. It's also a fantastic spot to watch the sunset. Additionally, it's conveniently situated across from Hotel Indigo, making it an even more desirable location for guests staying there.
