First Street Beach, Michigan, United States


4.5 (118 reviews) Monday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Spent Ranking #2 in Manistee County Beaches

Great beach with beautiful views!

IF you can catch this area on a weekday, you practically have the beach to yourselves. It is actually a series of interconnect beaches. You can walk along the shore, sunbath, or enjoy the views from the deck as the fishing boats come in from Lake Michigan. There are several beautiful views of the the lighthouse. Parking is free! The lighthouse park area (3 minutes walk south) has nice bathrooms and a concession stand.

    Nice beach
    We really enjoyed this beach on our trip to Manistee. The water was beautiful. There was plenty of room so we could stay socially distant from others while still having fun. My kids had a great time in the water.

    Big, Clean beach
    You can't get bigger or cleaner than this beach! A great place to enjoy the sunset over the water. There are three playgrounds in walking distance of the sand. Parking is free, but it is so large it'll take you a few minutes to walk all the way to the water.
