Holland Things to Do Tips by Traveler342

Many people don't believe me that there is a beach in Michigan - much less a very nice one that is a lot of fun to play around at. Yes, there are months of the year when it is cold, this is to be expected. But I wouldn't swim at the beach in January in Virginia, so why should Michigan be so different? In the summer months, splashing around in a huge body of water that does not sting your eyes and make you sticky like salt water, nor have things that will sting/poke/eat you is just the ticket. =)

Directions: The most popular are State Park, with the Big Red Lighthouse, and Tunnel Park, with a tunnel through the dune so you don't have to climb over it. All along Lakeshore Drive there are small public access beaches, if you want to get away from the crowds.

As one might expect, Holland takes great pride in it's Dutch heritage. Some of the sights and activities might sem a bit kitchy and overly-trouisty, but they can actually be a lot of fun. I think many of them are actually done quite nicely. I used to love the Dutch Village. They have lots of shops with handicrafts, yummy fudge, Dutch food, and fun atmosphere.
