Ludington has been voted one of the top beaches in the US, providing over 8 miles of pristine sandy public beaches. The SS Badger allows visitors to cut across on a short 4 hour ride from Manitowoc, Wisconsin, as well as observe the large ferry dock each evening. The Ludington State Park is comprised of nearly 5300 acres of scenic sand dunes, ponds, marshlands, and forests. The park also boasts a canoe and kayak trail, cross-country ski trails, and 18 miles of hiking trails that include a 1.5 mile path that leads to the Big Sable Point Lighthouse. Ludington is the top fishing port on Lake Michigan with over 65 licensed charter boats. More trout and salmon are caught out of the port of Ludington each year than any other port in the state. The Waterfront Park offers a harbor walk, a bandshell for free concerts and events, a children's playground and an impressive and expanding collection of original bronze sculptures celebrating Ludington's rich heritage.
