    by Discover Ohio

    Get a real taste of island life at Lake Erie islands and coastal Ohio!
     
    With an endless list of activities and events from history to jet skiing, Put-in-Bay on South Bass Island is Ohio's best kept secret. Dock your boat after a fun day on the lake and spend an evening at a winery.  

    The next day, visit Marblehead, home of the oldest operating lighthouse on the Great Lakes. After some exploration, take Kelleys Island Ferry Boat Lines and adventure out to
    Kelley’s Island, the largest American freshwater island in Lake Erie, nationally recognized as “Top-10 Healthiest Beach and Lake Getaway.” 

    Coastal Ohio is known for its array of sandy beaches that provide a perfect setting for relaxation before getting back to your real life routine. So before you venture home, visit East Harbor State Park or Cleveland Lakefront State Park where you can spend the day swimming, fishing or just soaking up the sun by the pristine water.

    Whether you’re a beach bum or an island hopper,
    Lake Erie shores and islands have something for every member of the family.
