Beaches

One West Michigan hot spot is proving you don't need to be basking on the shores of an ocean to enjoy one of the best beach towns in the country.

These robots are designed to help curb the litter issues on the shorts of the Great Lakes.

Before you take a dip in the Michigan waters make sure they are safe to be in.

It wouldn't be summer in Michigan if some of the beaches weren't shut down for one reason or another.

It's no secret to Michiganders that our beaches are awesome, but it's still cool to see them nationally recognized. Not one, but two Michigan beaches placed in a national ranking of the best freshwater beaches -- and one even nabbed the top spot!

MSN and the Points Guy came out with the list of the top underrated beach town in the US. South Haven placed 2nd on the list behind Block Island, Rhode Island.

Beautiful shorelines and sugar sand are what makes Michigan the best place for summer fun.

Renk: You do not have to drive far to enjoy a great beach town.

Are you planning on going to a Michigan beach soon?

Looks like I have some traveling to do this summer right here in the great state of Michigan.
