The Grand Haven Lighthouse and pier are very beautiful. Located at Grand Haven State Park it is very fun to walk out and watch all the boats in Lake Michigan. It can be very dangerous. You need to use good judgment on windy days.

I live in Grand Haven and enjoy walking the boardwalk and the pier. There is parking along the street and also in the Fisherman's lot near the pier.
