Presque Isle State Harbor

Presque Isle State Harbor is a well-developed public access point on Lake Huron's north shore, offering one of the last state harbors with full services before Mackinaw City. The facility features a boat ramp, marina with fuel (diesel and gasoline), water, electricity, restrooms, and showers. This makes it an excellent stop for kayakers and canoeists heading up the Lake Huron shoreline or exploring the Thunder Bay Marine Sanctuary and historic shipwrecks in the area.

The harbor sits within a scenic destination featuring two historic lighthouses, including the tallest accessible lighthouse tower on the Great Lakes, plus nearby state parks and dining options. Paddlers should note that as one of the few natural harbors on Lake Huron in this region, Presque Isle can experience significant wind and wave activity typical of the Great Lakes—plan accordingly for open-water conditions. The facility is active year-round for those seeking fuel, supplies, or a sheltered harbor for extended trips.
