Indiana Dunes National Park, nestled along the southern tip of Lake Michigan in Porter, Indiana, boasts a stunning stretch of beach that spans approximately 15 miles with fine golden sand that glistens under the sun. The park is a playground for a myriad variety of activities including swimming, hiking, bird watching, fishing, and picnicking among others. Despite its abundance of outdoor recreation opportunities, Indiana Dunes National Park has few amenities, so plan your trip accordingly, although it does not have lifeguards on duty, bathroom access, allow dogs, or permit camping and surfing, ensuring a more natural and untouched beach experience.
