Što trebate ponijeti sa sobom
The area is pretty casual. Dress how you are comfortable.
Tennis shoes are all you'll need for any of the hiking areas. A swimsuit for the beach if you are inclined. We like having a backpack with water, a simple snack, hand sanitizer and wipes stored in our car. Just in case.
Što možete rezervirati prije odlaska na putovanje
Broadway productions
The Saugatuck Center for the Arts books some great musicals, bands and children's classes. Again, casual dress but tickets do sell out quickly.
Putovanja s djecom
The beaches and piers are beautiful but can be dangerous.
Strong winds bring in beautiful waves but with the waves comes ripcurrents and waves that can pull you in with an undertow. Be aware of your "flag" red means stay out of the water. Most beaches do not have active life guards or cell reception.
