Lake Michigan is the second largest Great Lake by volume and the only Great Lake sheltered entirely by the U.S. Boaters looking for a city adventure will love a stop in Chicago and Michigan City, both of which are located on the southern tip of the lake. Cruisers looking for a beach experience will enjoy a trip from St. Joseph-Benton Harbor to Silver Lake Sand Dunes - but be sure to stop at Saugatuk, Grand Haven and Muskegon along the way!
