Description

Obviously there are innumerable locations in Michigan (on the 'East Shore' of Lake Michigan) where one could access the lake for possible surfing action. What follows are just a few known, popular spots.

Do you know of a location where the surfing action is just 'too sweet' (when the wind and waves are right)?
Please feel free to create a "Trip Report" detailing any additional 'hot spots' you are aware of on 'the big pond'.

Just to have some consistent means of logical order, locations are being listed from South to North, from the Michigan/Indiana border to the Mackinac Bridge. (Listed 'distance' is derived from Google driving directions, using a starting point of MI/IN state line and ending as close as possible via road access to each beach.)
