Michigan

Michigan is a state in the Upper Midwest bordered by Lake St. Clair and 4 Great Lakes (Michigan, Erie, Superior, and Huron). It has 2 peninsulas and over 6,000 inland ponds and lakes, so you can expect to enjoy plenty of natural beauty and outdoor adventures. The Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore offers miles of hiking trails and sandstone formations along the southern shore of Lake Superior. The Headlands International Dark Sky Park has over 550 acres of wooded trails, rare plants and animals, as well as unparalleled stargazing opportunities.

Summer is a busy period in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, especially in Marquette County. Beachgoers can enjoy sunbathing, swimming, and snorkelling at pristine strips like Black Rocks Beach, Sunset Beach, South Beach, and McCarty’s Cove. If you’re planning a city break in Michigan, Detroit boasts a wide range of modern conveniences that have revitalised many of its historic relics. Located in Michigan’s Lower Peninsula, Mackinaw City is home to iconic lighthouses, maritime museums, and structures dating back to the early 18th century.
