Beaches

Grab a suit and towel, perhaps a beach chair or bucket and shovel, and head to any number of beaches with parks, playgrounds, rolling waves, or shallow water. Find sandy beaches and volleyball at Lake Erie’s Sunset Bay, beach glass hunting at Point Gratiot Park, a popular splash pad at Wright Park Beach, plan a Lake Erie beach vacation, or watch the sunset from a driftwood perch at Barcelona Harbor Beach. Chautauqua Lake and Cassadaga Lakes offer calmer waters for little ones and village settings for quick diversions.
