Beach and Shoreline
The first beach access point at Whitefish Dunes State Park is no longer ADA accessible due to shoreline erosion, however, the access point is now open with stone slabs leading to the shore. The second and third beach access points are open with stairs leading to the shore.
Water levels remain high on Lake Michigan. When walking along the shoreline, please remain on designated hiking trails and exercise caution.
