Grand Haven Lighthouse and Pier, Michigan, United States
4.5 (651 reviews) Spent Ranking #1 in Ottawa County Piers & Boardwalks • Lighthouses
Great Sunset
This is a great place to walk the pier and watch the sunset, even on a cold fall day. I suppose that could be said of any lighthouse/beach on the Michigan side of Lake Michigan, but it holds true here. Right now the lake water level is high, so be prepared to get your feet wet if you go to the far side of the outer light. We parked for free, but I doubt you could during the peak tourist season.

Nice evening stroll
My husband walked out to the lighthouse after dinner in Grand Haven. It’s a nice, relaxing stroll that even allows dogs. I noticed many families were walking too. It was August, however it was not too warm by the water. I would recommend for people who enjoy beautiful sunsets by lighthouses.

A nice walk.
My girlfriend and I walked from downtown, along the Riverwalk and out to the end of the pier. We are both big into photography, so we enjoyed the view and snapped off a lots of photos. The waves were pretty high due to the high winds, so it created some good shots. The catwalk and the front and rear range lights take a really nice picture.
