Great place for kayaking the Pinnebog River. Nice beach at the end where it meets Lake Huron. Nice area for unloading and loading kayaks. One of my favorite places to kayak.

Port crescent seemed like a really great place for all kinds of different people, interests and activities! I was only there for a bit to walk the beach and check it out on the way home but I’ll definitely make a trip back up this way and to this park for some stargazing, beach time and hiking. There looks to be camping and other things available as well. The tip of the thumb is another amazing place in Michigan!! Shhhh please keep it a secret so the place doesn’t get ruined 🤩

​We recently visited this beach and it was a mixed bag. The open space and the view—with Jenks Roadside Park in sight—were really great. The water itself is shallow and calm, perfect for kids to play and wade far out safely. We appreciated the pavilion and bathrooms located roughly halfway to the water, but getting there was a different story. The walk from the parking lot is quite long and the path isn't paved, so packing light is a good idea. The sand was also a bit rough with lots of sticks and shells, and unfortunately, we were all constantly swatting away biting flies.​

Perfect for star gazing, this Dark Sky International Park is set along the Lake Huron coastline. Sunsets on the beach and waking up to the sounds of the waves in the morning are just some of its many perks. Showers, electricity available, as well as cabins, cottages and geodesic domes.
