Arcadia Dunes (C.S. Mott Nature Preserve) mixes coastal dune ridges, beach access, and quiet wetlands—ideal for layered lines, sand texture, and moody skies. Expect soft morning light over dune crests and dramatic, wind-reshaped patterns near shore; mid-year vegetation adds color. Free/low-fee preserve access (confirm current rules on arrival). Parking is typically limited—arrive early and use designated lots/trails.
