Ohio's Great Lakes Getaway

Mention the word “beach” around here and everyone thinks of whisking off to Myrtle Beach and the coastal shores of South Carolina. While it’s a worthy location offering up plenty of attractions and activities for the entire family there are many other beach destinations to sample and enjoy.

One of these beach getaways is the shores and islands of Lake Erie up in northern Ohio. A 5 to 6 hour drive places you smack in the middle of the Ohio “Keys” and the Sun & Fun Coast. There is also plenty of history and culture up here too!

On Ohio’s north coast you will discover a world class amusement park, historic and modern beachfront resort hotels, wineries, quaint cabins, outlet shopping, water parks and much more.

The area that I am referring to is basically Sandusky, Port Clinton, Put in Bay and the Lake Erie Islands, portions of Ottawa, Erie, Huron and Sandusky counties.

There is plenty to do from watching the waves lapping at shore, viewing a romantic sunset to explore the attractions and amenities of the Key West of Ohio’s north shore and islands.
