Small lakeside park on Lake Michigan with sandy shore, scattered rocks and low dunes — strong opportunities for shoreline compositions, reflections and long exposures. Best at sunrise for golden light over the water and migrating waterfowl; clear, windy days yield dramatic skies. Easy access with roadside parking on Lakeshore Dr, no entry fee, short walks from lot to shore. Available year-round — winter ice and snow add texture but bring cold-weather gear.
